Samsung and Apple preparing for second epic courtroom fight

Samsung and Apple preparing for second epic courtroom fight

Galaxy Note II and iPad Mini added to lawsuit

As Samsung and Apple prepare to go to battle in a second California lawsuit, the two sides have been amending their latest lists of 'infringing' products.

Ahead of the new trial, scheduled for March 2014, Samsung has added the iPad Mini, iPad 4 and fifth generation iPod touch to a list of products it claims Apple has infringed upon, which includes the iPhone 5.

Apple, meanwhile has added newer Samsung gadgets like the Galaxy S3, Galaxy Note 2, Galaxy Tab 8.9 Wi-Fi Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, Rugby Pro and Galaxy S3 Mini.

Eternal battle

This lawsuit is separate to the epic trial in which Apple earned a crushing victory back in August.

With the trial date not scheduled until 2014, we can probably expect every new phone, tablet or PMP released by either company to be added to this lawsuit.

However, the most depressing thing about a trial date 15 months away is that we'll probably be writing and you'll probably still be reading about these two squabbling in court when 2014 rolls around.
