Court Lifts Ban on Samsung Galaxy Tab Sales in Europe Due to Falsified Evidence in Apple’s Case

Apple recently won a preliminary injunction case in Europe banning the sales of Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1. Based on a case of infringed intellectual property, Apple was able to convince the court that Samsung's tablet copied the design of the iPad too closely, and Apple requested a block of all sales in the European Union until the case could be further investigated.

It looks like Apple doesn't mind playing a little dirty. A report has surfaced that Apple could have allegedly tampered with and falsified evidence against the Samsung Galaxy Tab, and the ban on the tablet's sales has been lifted in Europe while the court investigates.

Shocker: Apple’s iPad is Cannibalising Notebook Sales

Way back when Apple first announced the iPad last year, the Cupertino outfit was very careful not to put its new device up against the notebook market. 'The iPad is a new class of device," it said, claiming that it fitted in-between the smartphone and notebook, filling the gap with a large, touchscreen display that filled our hearts with joy and wonder.

Fast-forward a year and a handful of months, and it's clear that the iPad has taken sales away from at least some notebook manufacturers. The netbook market is all but dead, and the same companies who tried to sell $300 laptops are now selling $500 iPad competitors...

iPad 2 No Longer Must-Have Gadget, Ousted by BlackBerry PlayBook? (Yeah Right)

In what can only be described as a bold claim, and possibly a bit of link bait, voucher site iLoveCashback.com has claimed that Apple's wunder-tablet, the iPad 2, is no longer the must-have gadget.

The new champion? RIM's BlackBerry PlayBook. It's ok, we'll wait for you to pick yourself back up off the floor.

Up? Ok, here's how they come to that rather amazing conclusion...

No Untethered Jailbreak Coming Until iOS 5

If you are currently jailbroken on iOS 4.3.5, we have some bad news. There is going to be no untethered jailbreak until iOS 5 is released. This is because the various jailbreak teams are saving their exploits for iOS 5. They could release an untethered jailbreak right now, but then it would take longer to find an exploit for iOS 5...

Other Tablets Can’t Compete With the iPad’s “Design Efficiencies”

We've all been wondering why the plethora of other tablets out there haven't been selling as well as the iPad. Android tablets abound, and seemingly hopeful slates, like the Motorola Xoom, don't even come close to the iPad's sales.

Apparently, the magic is in the process. Apple's tight control over the iPad's hardware and software gives the iPad an unmatched advantage in "design efficiences" that other manufacturers can't copy — no matter how hard they try.

Make Your iPad 2 Look Just Like a Nintendo Gameboy

Those of a certain age will remember the good old days of the Nintendo Gameboy. The 3DS and DS' Grandfather was a boxy, black and white (well, more green, actually) affair, none of this headache-inducing 3D whizz-bangery here.

If you remember the device in question and don't think I've finally lost the plot, then you might just like an upcoming iPad 2 case, courtesy of Lootiful.

As with Lootiful's iPhone 4 case, the iPad equivalent offers protection from bumps and scratches while presenting a retro appeal for those of us old  enough to remember the golden age of gaming...

iPad 2 Now Ships Within 24 Hours

For the first time since its launch in the US, the iPad 2 is now shipping within 24 hours. Soon after its official release in the US, the iPad wouldn't ship under 2 weeks. It got slightly better over time, and shipping time finally got cut to 1-3 days a couple weeks ago.

With the rumor of an iPad 3 floating around, it might be a wise thing to hold on to your iPad at this time. The iPad 3 might very well be better as a more expensive "pro" version, but if I were you, I'd wait to see what Apple is up to...

Apple May Release a Cheaper iPad This Year

More rumors are circulating today that Apple is getting ready to launch a new, cheaper iPad later this year, with three new hardware partners joining the manufacturing chain.

The ever sometimes reliable DigiTimes believes that the three new partners have been brought on board to help drop the manufacturing costs of the next iPad, with Apple aiming to compete with a lower price point than its current model....

How to Re-Enable Hidden Facebook App on Your Jailbroken iPad

Yesterday we told you about the secret Facebook for iPad app that was hidden inside the current, iPhone-only app. A workaround was discovered that allowed anyone to enable the official Facebook for iPad application with a few quick steps.

Not too soon after Facebook for iPad got leaked, Facebook actually started blocking access to the hidden iPad app. Now, the jailbreak community has come to our rescue again, and we've got a new teak that will re-enable the secret Facebook app on a jailbroken iPad...
