By now, it's a well known fact that Apple is suing the pants off Samsung for "copying" its iPad with tablets that resemble its design. In Samsung's defense, Apple didn't invent the modern day tablet form, Stanley Kubrick's 1968 film 2001: A Space Odyssey did. Geek fight!

Win one for Apple. After suing Samsung for copying its iPad and iPhone designs with similar competitors, a German court's been granted an injunction to block all sales of the Galaxy Tab 10.1 in the European Union. Yowza!

We've seen plenty of solar powered laptops and netbooks over the years, but they've all been either some sort of concept, or available only in other countries. Now Samsung will start selling one right here in the U.S.

Apple made a big stink about its 326 pixel-per-inch 'retina display' when they introduced the iPhone 4, so it was a little disappointing when the much larger iPad display arrived with only a few additional pixels. Now Samsung looks to steal some of the Apple's thunder, with a stunning 300-ppi 10.1-inch tablet display.
