An import ban against HTC's Android -based products could be
ordered before the end of the year as a result of the US
International Trade Commissions verdict.
24 Oct, 2011 The ITC staff's ini tial position on a potential
import ban against HTC's Android-based devices was that sucha sanction "is not contrary to the public interest.

4G capabilities.

There are 19 ongoing lawsuits at this stage .
Both in Australia and Germany, Galaxy Tab 10.1 is prevented
from being sold or advertised.
Samsung will most likely win German injunction(s) against
Apple's 3G-capable products in late January. If it does,Samsung demands are:
1. A permanent injunction against the distribution.
2. Compensation of damages (and information required to
calculate them) relating to past sales.
3. A recall from the retail channel, and the destruction of all
3G-capable Apple products.

Motorola has a better position than Samsung or HTC.
Apple will most likely be accused of infringing the patent-in-
suit with any products containing the iCloud client software.
Would cause an enormous economical damage.
Apple is loosing in this case.
CURRENT SITUATION

HTC is supported by Google, but doesnt really have any
patents that could be used use for an exchange with Apple for
a peacefull settlement.
Samsung launched a global patent litigation against Apple,
thus forcing it to fight this patent war in many fronts. Motorola versus Apple lawsuits are the ones that are most
likely to make Apples current leaders rethink their current
strategy.
