German publication Webwereld.nl poured through the legal filing and discovered the images of the Galaxy Tab submitted by Apple do not match the appearance of the final retail version of the tablet. Apple’s images show a short, squat device whose dimensions match the iPad, not the oblong tablet that Samsung released.
Most legal analysts believe Apple accidentally submitted older images and not deliberately forged images of the Galaxy Tab. Regardless, the court based its decision to ban the Galaxy Tab on this evidence alone and may reverse the injunction based on this new information. [Webwereld.nl via PC World]

I suggest Apple is now banned from making any further actions in court.

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 9:28 AMLook, i am kinda trolling – i dont want to see any one killed. But i do want to see apple fall. And it would be nice to see their HQ fall (as long as no one was hurt)

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 10:01 AMShould have figured, my bad please continue.
I would also like to see this fail.

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 10:05 AMYeah, making yourself sound like an ‘al qaeda’ operative isn’t helping your case dude, I suggest you leave out the bombing jokes because,.. well.. they’re bombing!! #]

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 11:55 AMI like how you only have to be named ‘Muhammad’, the single most commonly used name on Earth, and mention car bombing to sound connected to Al Qaeda.

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 12:02 PMIf your name was Bob and you were talking about bombing people or places I’d have a go at you too! A little common sense goes a long way!! #[

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 12:18 PMIt’s not just that mate, he’s been saying little things all around the place to make himself look like an Arab terrorist. We’re not just jumping to conclusions here. It’s part of his Troll Persona.

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 9:41 AMI don’t know much about the prototypes or anything, but was there ever truly a build of a Galaxy Tab that wasn’t 16:9? Sounds real dirty to me…
TSH
Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 10:30 AMYeeeap. It’s a simple thing to stretch an image vertically just a little to alter an apparent ratio from 16:9 to 12:9 (4:3). Judges can’t be expected to detect an obvious shoop from the pixels and having seen many shoops in their time.

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 7:38 PMIt was just a really scummy photoshop. The image is available on Engadget, they changed the image dimensions to make the two tablets look the same, and opened the Galaxy tab’s app tray to make it looks as IOS-y as possible.
Pretty much everyone knows the Galaxy Tab is meant to be used in horizontal fashion with the home screen (not apps tray), and that it’s much narrower than the iPad 2.
Real dirty pool Apple.

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 12:56 PMWill Apple have to compensate Samsung for lost sales?
Paul
Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 3:35 PMI certainly hope they’d suffer the consequences, of being giant cocks. Apple should definitely pay the price, if it were anyone else that did this to Apple everyone would be up in arms.
It’s time apple got the treatment, quit all their stupid patent bs, and legal disputes.

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 4:48 PMI am liking the awakened thinking of more and more people these days. I have to spend less and less time bad mouthing Apple because Apple themselves and consequently more people are doing it for me.
Hazzarr the world is waking!

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 at 8:32 PMThe Apple stink has been getting kinda noticeable these days. This is just the most recent in a long string of increasingly nasty Apple policies.

Sunday, August 21, 2011 at 4:37 PMYes… No longer need we formulate arguments about their odious intentions.
Some a priori truths:
Winter is cold.
Water is wet.
Boobs are great.
Apple Inc. is rotten to the core.

Saturday, August 20, 2011 at 5:14 PMsurely someone patented the wheel right lol.. well whoever did should sue apple for copying their design for their new building which is 1000000 times larger.. but as we seen used before (cough apple) we can just photochop it to look smaller.. to around the same size as a wheel. then sue them..

Friday, August 19, 2011 at 10:50 PMStrange that this happened while Samsung makes their screens. Time will tell.

Saturday, August 20, 2011 at 5:20 PMmmm in that case infinion better watch out apple will sue them for making a chip that looks just like their CHip in the ipad and iphone.. ohh wait.. hang on. a second =P

Sunday, August 21, 2011 at 4:42 PMOh dear. Let’s hope they have better success with their patent lawsuit against Nature for its unsanctioned use of their corporate logo.

Thursday, August 25, 2011 at 6:05 PMWhile i like Apple, this is not helping their popularity. Especially submitting the wrong photos…what a screw up by their legal team.
