Apple beats Samsung in ND Cal; jury verdict of $1.05 billion! Bad news for Android.
From Reuters:
Apple Inc. scored a sweeping legal victory over Samsung on August 24 as a U.S. jury found the Korean company had copied critical features of the hugely popular iPhone and iPad and awarded the U.S. company $1.051 billion in damages.
The verdict -- which came much sooner than expected -- could lead to an outright ban on sales of key Samsung products and will likely solidify Apple's dominance of the exploding mobile computing market.
A number of companies that sell smartphones based on Google's Android operating system may now face further legal challenges from Apple, a company that is already among the largest and most profitable in business history.
