And now Apple wins a round . . .

. . . this time in the United States International Trade Commission.  An administrative law judge at the ITC has ruled that Samsung has infringed four Apple patents, including one of Apple’s “rectangle” iPhone design patents, and utility patents including pinch-to-zoom.  The ruling, if upheld by the full ITC, could result in a ban on the importation into the U.S. of a number of Samsung’s products.  We’ll see what happens next . . .
