In a surprising move, Galaxy Tab 7.7 that was unveiled a couple of days back at IFA, has been removed by Samsung from the show. Every demo unit as well as marketing material related to Galaxy Tab 7.7 has been removed by Samsung due to the ongoing litigation with Apple. According to the released statement, Samsung is doing it due to the Dussledorf court’s decision made on September 2.
Samsung respects the court’s decision (The District Court in Dusseldorf) made on September 2 and therefore decided not to display any more the GALAXY Tab 7.7 in IFA. However, we believe it severely limits consumer choice in Germany. Samsung will pursue all available measures, including legal options, to defend its intellectual property rights and ensure its innovative products remain available to German consumers.
