Patents war between Samsung and Apple heats up

Apple will claim 2.525 million dollars (2,090 million) to Samsung after the trial that opens Monday at San Jose (California).
In calculating this figure is what has been gaining more Samsung has gained since they started competing "illegally copying Apple products," the allegation of filing of the complaint. Samsung answers, thanks
to technology, Apple has been able to get "exorbitant profits".
Apple says that thanks to the illegal use of its patents, Samsung has become a world leader in mobile telephony, "attracting billions in profits", while it cost Apple to reduce 500 million profit.
Thirteen minutes later it was the turn of Samsung, which has accused the Cupertino Company to cut competition and limit the choice of consumers to keep their benefits "historically exorbitant."
To all these, the meeting between the heads of each company was a failure. The judge ordered them to sit together and to reach an agreement before the end of the ongoing month if they are willing to avoid the next trial.
Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO, and Choi Gee-sung, Samsung’s vice-president, has discussed on the valuation of patents.
The court rejected Apple’s request to ban the sale of the tablet Samsung 10.1 inch, renamed as N, on Tuesday. However, they maintained its ban on the tablet of 7 inches across the European Union, a size very similar to what
Apple will bring in a few months.
The court fight, from one end to another of the planet is not just about patents, as Apple is also accused of allegedly copying the design of tablets or even the product packaging.
Legal disputes have not prevented Samsung earlier this year to become the first mobile manufacturer in the world, overtaking Nokia after 14 years, or Apple to be number one of the tablets for more than 70% market share.
