Apple has engaged Samsung in the Federal Court of Australia. In an escalation of its ongoing patent dispute with Samsung that is unfolding across several countries across the globe, Apple has successfully reached an agreement that will stop the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 from going on sale in the country. The agreement means that Samsung will not be able to sell its Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Australia until the US lawsuit is resolved, nor will it be able to advertise it. In return Apple has agreed to pay Samsung unspecified damages for lost sales should it lose its case.
