Samsung will modify the Galaxy Tab for sale in Australia after reaching a deal with Apple that prevents the current version from being sold in the country.
Here's a statement from the company:
Apple Inc. filed a complaint with the Federal Court of Australia involving a Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 variant that Samsung Electronics had no plans of selling in Australia. No injunction was issued by the court and the parties in the case reached a mutual agreement which stipulates that the variant in question will not be sold in Australia.
A Samsung GALAXY Tab 10.1 for the Australian market will be released in the near future.
This undertaking does not affect any other Samsung smartphone or tablet available in the Australian market or other countries.
Samsung will continue to actively defend and protect our intellectual property to ensure our continued innovation and growth in the mobile communication business.
Apple has sued Samsung for copying the "look and feel" of its iOS devices. This agreement in Australia seems to indicate that Apple has a strong case against the company.
