Apple's lawsuit against Samsung for copying the iPhone and iPad has put the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 on hold in Australia, according to Bloomberg.
The Galaxy Tab infringes of 10 Apple patents including the "look and feel," and touchscreen technology of the iPad, says Steven Burley, a lawyer for Apple.
Samsung, based in Suwon, South Korea, agreed to stop advertising the Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Australia and not to sell the device until it wins court approval or the lawsuit is resolved, according to an accord reached by lawyers during a break in the hearing. Should Apple lose its patent infringement lawsuit, it agreed to pay Samsung damages, which weren't specified.
Apple's feud with Samsung is threatening to sour their relationship in other areas such as manufacturing with recent rumors claiming that Apple plans to take its business elsewhere.
