Apple sues Samsung over iPhone, iPad cases

Written by

Businessweek:

Apple issued the notice of infringement to Samsung in Australia over the cases, and will file a statement of claim, Apple’s lawyer Stephen Burley said at a hearing in Sydney today. Samsung’s lawyer Katrina Howard said at the same hearing the company was served with the notice that the cases infringe at least 10 patents.

If you’re going to copy the device, why not copy the case too.

    Seeing Samsung’s case clones a few months back really had me wondering if they have any ideas of their own.

    I starting to think that their strategy to compete with Apple is to trick the “clueless” buyer to buy their tablet instead of the iPad. Perhaps the next step for them is to rename it to “Samsung iTab?”
