The tech industry's competitive weapon of choice -- the patent suit -- has drawn blood yet again, with Apple wielding it against Samsung. Briefly, Apple is pursing legal remedies against Samsung, alleging that the company's Galaxy Tab violates several of its patents for the iPad. As a result, the South Korean manufacturer found itself on the receiving end of an injunction issued by a German court that prohibits sale of the device throughout most of Europe. The exception is the Netherlands, where Apple has lodged a separate case against Samsung.
