U.K. Judge Deems iPad Cooler than Galaxy Tab
Too boring to be a knockoff? Really?It probably wasn't exactly the kind of ruling Samsung was looking for, but a British judge has helped the South Korean electronics giant ward off legal attacks from U.S. rival Apple by saying their tablet devices aren't that similar and can't be mistaken for each other.
One reason: Samsung's Galaxy Tab devices "are not as cool" as the Apple's iPad.
In what may be the first time a court attached an objective definition of cool, Judge Colin Birss of the England and Wales Patents County Court wrote that the rivals are easily distinguishable by inquiring eyes.
'Extreme Simplicity' "The informed user's overall impression of each of the Samsung Galaxy Tablets is the following: From the front they belong to the family which includes the Apple design," said Birss according to reports. "But the Samsung products are very thin, almost insubstantial members of that family with unusual details on the back. They do not have the same understated and extreme simplicity which is possessed by the Apple design. They are not as cool. The overall impression produced is different."
Apple essentially created the tablet market in 2010 with the first iPad model and has since launched two sucessors, all dominating the competition, while Samsung's Android-based rivals are a distant second. In the U.S., Apple succeeded in having sales of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 model, closest in size to the iPad, banned because a judge -- apparently not taking the coolness factor into consideration -- deemed the devices too similar.
Samsung also makes a 7.7-inch and 8.9-inch Galaxy Tab, and Birss' ruling applies to all of them. Samsung had asked the court for a ruling to protect against claims of infringement.
The U.K. decision centered not on whether Samsung infringed on Apple patents when it designed the Galaxy Tab, but whether one...

22:27Many of the predictions we make in everyday life are vague, and we often get them wrong because we have incomplete information, such as when we predict the weather. But in quantum mechanics, even if all the information is available, the outcomes of certain experiments generally can't be predicted perfectly beforehand. power. The paper looks at measurements on members of maximally entangled pairs of photons that are sent into Stern-Gerlach-type apparatus, in which each photon can take one out of two possible paths.
