Apple, however, was able to extend the ban until Friday at 4pm while it prepares for an appeal to the High Court.

In this case, Apple had previously obtained an injunction preventing Samsung from selling the Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Australia. The Galaxy Tab had also been blocked in Germany.

Apple typically releases its new iPhone series around mid-September, which means we are about two months out from the launch of the iPhone 16.

Because a law was broken by the sale of patent-infringing merchandise that's basically tantamount to straight-forward theft?
Your response is no less comical than someone saying "a guy at work wants to buy a stolen car, why shouldn't he be able to?" Gosh, I don't know, maybe because a law was broken?
