After Germany, the Netherlands and France, the endless war between the House of Cupertino and the South Korean giant Samsung has extended the old continent to Britain's legal initiative of Tim Cook and Associates; new topic because the usual course would patents filed and deemed violated.
In case no official confirmation has come with regard to the patents that Apple claims in court, but it is easy to imagine that the object of contention is the usual question concerning the "likeness" of the Galaxy range of mobile devices with those produced from Cupertino.
The one between Apple and Samsung has become a true "world war between superpowers" High Tech, because the battlefield is not extended to Europe alone, but also America (United States) and Asia ( in Japan).
By implication "ironic" in this whole affair is that the Samsung is a leading supplier of Apple regarding the iPhone and iPad components, a partnership that is the brink of collapse for months not for technical or commercial but for relations between the two companies have become unsustainable.
