guys,
it was going to come anytime from apple.
see the similarity,
apple ipod touch --- samsung galaxy player
iphone--- galaxy s
ipad--- samsung galaxy tab.

these koreans are copying each and everything of apple.
apple gave them designs of cpu for iphone and ipod touch,
these guys copied that improved upon it.
majority of flash supply on i devices is by samsung.
it will be samsung at loss.
apple i am sure that they must have secured flash supply from some other company .
remember that multi billion dollar supply agreement in which company name was not revealed.
i can bet that its for flash memory supply.

according to anandtech (editor anand), samsung took apple's design and improved upon for its galaxy series.
just see the similarity in product lines.
and considering apple's patent stock,they can sue anybody.
not that they are doing very fair business but still they have some of the best brains working their.

now Samsung returns the favor; sues Apple in Germany, Korea, Japan
 
apple keeps all things outsourced and see their muscle power or rather money power,

foxconn is opening plant in brazil for some 12 billion usd.

as apple was under scrutiny for working conditions that prevail at foxconn china where they make i devices.

second thing,they bought off almost all touchscreen making capacity of all major player,

so competition wont get basic ingredient for their tablets.

3) am sure that they already have sourced up flash memory supply.

how will you let your component supplier eat your own cake?

i am not apple fanboy or anything but just see the business running behind apple.

they have not had any quarter where their results were below expections.

they have got everytime results which are beyond expectations.

they prove their strength in design and its functionalinality.
 
Apple has lost it. They have lost their sales and now in aggression they are playing the game very stupidly. They are not ready to accept the fact that Android Development is way ahead of them. Despite of creating and getting something innovative in the market, they are fighting with the big players. I mean how dumb is that. And I won't be surprised if they now sue LG. LG's Optimus 2X looks almost like an Iphone 4.
 
Are you aware of the Galaxy S 2 and the new Galaxy Tab 10.1? Also Samsung is trying its best getting Bada into the market.

And also the competition between SGS and Apple iphone has always been there since the samsung released it SGS.

And for the market share..check this..

Android tops everyone in 2010 market share; 2011 may be different

The apple is having a hard time with the release of 2.3.3 and the upcoming 3.0 and 3.1 on dual core devices.

The android has the big advantage as it is open source.
 
Someone mail Steve before he leaves his god forsaken country forever, permanent solution to this problem .........

Merge the 2

SAMSUNG + APPLE = SAMPLE

Samsung strikes back at Apple with ten patent infringement claims

engadget said:
This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone: in the latest chapter of the Apple-Samsung dispute over their smartphones' resemblance, the latter company has just retaliated by filing lawsuits against Apple in three countries. Sammy's load of ammo includes five patent infringements in South Korea, two in Japan, and three in Germany, though we've yet to hear more details about these claims. Now we just sit back and enjoy the show -- popcorn, anyone?

[Thanks, Jake L.]

Update: Reuters has shed some light on the actual patents Samsung is alleging are being infringed. The news organization reports they relate to "power reduction during data transmission, 3G technology for reducing errors during data transmission, and wireless data communication technology."

Samsung countersues Apple over iPhone, iPad | Reuters
 
Latest update:

Samsung denied seeing the next iPhone and iPad, Apple denied banning Samsung's new gear - Phone Arena

In a Solomon decision that restores our trust in the justice system, some of Apple's and Samsung's more outrageous requests in their ongoing legal battle were denied.

Samsung was said to "overreach" in its request to see the next iPhone and the next iPad for possible patent infringements. That must have come as an answer to the Samsung "harassing" Apple comment. The court said that while the idea of "parity" is understandable, given that Apple was granted the permission to see the Samsung Galaxy S II and Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 last week, these are now on sale nationwide anyway, whereas the next iPhone and iPad have not been even announced yet.

The court, on the other hand, denied Apple's request for the allegedly-infringing Samsung gear to be banned from selling nationwide, thus evening things out, and wiping everybody's tears. This is getting better by the day, we have to stock on popcorn.
