In other countries and regions, Apple has made several victories. For example, in Australia and Germany, Apple won the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet temporary embargo. In addition, Apple is still the Dutch victory.
Apple iPhone 4S after the listing, the Samsung has a number of countries accused of iPhone 4S patent infringement. But so far, has not won a victory.
