Samsung will formally address Apple-led Galaxy Tab ban on Aug 25

Samsung will have the opportunity to defend itself against Apple in a German court on August 25th. The Korean manufacturer will argue against the recent injunction that halted the sales of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 in all EU countries except the Netherlands.

Until this date, the Apple-requested injunction will remain in effect. This timing will likely keep the Galaxy Tab off the shelves of European stores until September and may have an impact on Samsung's next quarterly earnings.

That is what Samsung wanted everyone to believe, the truth just came out that they spun this story to favor themselves and lied to the public about being not told about the ban, they new evidence shows they knew a week before the ban went into place. Follow up at the Foss Patent site. Here is a quote from the report that shows Samsung lied.


"Florian Mueller reports that Samsung, in fact, filed a protective pleasing with the court a week before Apple’s motion for an injunction was granted.

While it’s true that they weren’t put on notice and that there wasn’t any hearing, Samsung wasn’t forthright enough to admit that it had filed a protective pleading. Samsung wasn’t blindsided — Samsung knew it had this coming, and the court’s decision was based on both Apple’s motion and Samsung’s pre-emptive opposition pleading. This kind of communication strategy on Samsung’s part is old-school spin doctoring and only serves to strengthen my impression that Samsung is in a legally weak position against Apple. If Samsung wants to inspire confidence, it has to understand that half the truth is sometimes tantamount to a whole lie."

As you can see Samsung lied again like it did last time by placing actors in it's supposed real life people using the Galaxy tab and they got caught lying again.

Samsung even tough at on time had products that are liked by users they have shown time and again that they have no problem with lying to the public and it has bit them more then once.
