The ongoing legal battles of Apple and Samsung have interestingly enough managed to create a saga within a saga. That the recent UK court verdict. Apple was ordered to run online and newspaper ads stating that Samsung did not in fact infringe their devices. The devices in question are the Galaxy Tab series and the iPad. Apple complied with the verdict and did run an online apology. Unfortunately it didn’t go as plan. The apology was slammed by the UK court as being incorrect. Apple was ordered to rewrite a new one within 48 hours. And sure enough, the new apology is online.
The new apology, as seen above is more to the point and direct. The original one at best a poor attempt which can best be described as being overly snarky. The new apology has been online for a day now and so far it hasn’t ruffled any feathers. Apple has also done its part in running the newspaper advert which has also so far not gathered unneeded attention. Let’s hope this is the last we hear of it and the chapter can be closed. Unfortunately though this was only the UK side of things, the war still rages on.
