German court partially lifts Galaxy Tab 10.1 ban, for everywhere but Germany

The weird case of the European ban on Samsung’s Galaxy Tab 10.1 has taken another twist today, with the same German court partially lifting the ban – and allowing Samsung to continue selling its tablet across Europe. But still not in Germany.

According to the WSJ, the German court was concerned that it was over-stepping its powers in banning a Korean product from being shipped and marketed across the entire EU, so the ban is gone – although it still remains in place in Germany alone, with Samsung’s German unit not allowed to ship the tablet.

Here’s a happy Samsung image:

The sooner Google just buys EVERYONE and puts all this nonsense to bed the better.

    because simply a German court has no jurisdiction over any other EU country, that can only happen from Brussels… What next? Some paid off eastern European state banning items all over Europe? Clearly that can’t work…
