Court allows Samsung Galaxy Tab to again sell in Europe

1.) A German court lifted an injunction in the EU nations, except Germany itself

2.) Apple misled the courts by offering altered images of Samsung's Galaxy Tab. In the filed documents, the pictures of both the iPad and Galaxy Tab appear to be the same size. In reality, the Galaxy Tab uses a different sized screen and aspect ratio than Apple's tablet.

Both of those datapoints are intriguing.

Intriguing, but apparently not related to each other. The injunction was suspended outside Germany solely due to a dispute over whether the Düsseldorf district court has personal jurisdiction over Samsung Korea.

True, but IIRC the altered photographs are getting their day in court August 25th (Samsung's appeal of the now-limited injunction).

IIRC only one photograph was stretched, while the others were the correct aspect ratio.
