蘋果再次起訴三星，目標瞄準熱銷新品
|
????蘋果公司（Apple）聲稱，三星（Samsung）“繼續在市場上銷售仿制產品”。于是蘋果在周五再度向圣何塞聯邦法院起訴另外21款“侵權產品”，其中包括三星的熱銷產品Galaxy S III和Galaxy Note。 ????此次起訴對蘋果在二月份一項訴訟的內容進行了修改。就在一周前，三星剛剛遭遇重擊，硅谷一家法院的陪審團裁定，運行谷歌安卓操作系統的三星舊款設備侵犯了蘋果專利，應賠償蘋果10.5億美元。 ????而蘋果此次起訴的對象則是三星在2011年8月到2012年8月期間發布的另外21款安卓手機與平板電腦，其中包括Galaxy S III與Galaxy Note。蘋果將此案稱為“新訴訟”，以免和其稱為“先前的案子”混淆。 ????Galaxy Note是一款5.3英寸超級平板手機，在這款產品的電視廣告中，三星繼續將矛頭對準iPhone手機，諷刺排隊購買最新蘋果產品的愚忠果粉。 ????而三星六月份推出的Galaxy S III“旗艦版”智能手機，一直頗受好評，并迅速熱銷。科技資訊網CNET將該款手機評為編輯推薦級別。據三星稱，在不到一個月時間內，Galaxy S III手機的銷量就達到了1,000萬臺，讓三星和安卓一躍超過蘋果和iOS，成為今年夏天新的智能手機市場領頭羊。 ????這次，蘋果起訴三星另外21款產品侵犯了另外八項蘋果專利。根據起訴書，這八項專利分別是： ????? '647 —— 在計算機生成數據的框架上執行動作的系統與方法 ????? '959 —— 計算機系統內檢索信息的通用界面 ????? '721 —— 在解鎖圖像上通過手勢為設備解鎖 ????? '172 —— 提供文字建議的方法、系統與圖形用戶界面 ????? '760 —— 移動多功能設備未接電話管理 ????? '502 —— 域級別使用歷史列表的圖形用戶界面 ????? '414 —— 多設備間不同數據的同步 ????? '604 —— 計算機系統內檢索信息的通用界面 ????該案暫定在2014年3月開庭審理。 ????蘋果公司內部人士制作了一份pdf版的修訂起訴書，可點擊此處查看。 ????譯者：劉進龍/汪皓 |
????Claiming that Samsung has "continued to flood the market with copycat products," Apple (AAPL) on Friday asked a federal court in San Jose for a new jury trial to rule on 21 more "infringing products" -- including Samsung's best-selling Galaxy S III and Galaxy Note. ????The filing, an amendment to a suit filed in February, comes one week to the day after a Silicon Valley jury socked Samsung with $1.05 billion in damages for infringing Apple patents with a wave of older devices running Google's (GOOG) Android operating system. ????The new case -- not to be confused with what Apple now refers to as "the Earlier Case" -- targets 21 more Android phones and tablets released by Samsung between August 2011 and August 2012, chief among them the Galaxy S III and Galaxy Note. ????The Note is the 5.3-inch hybrid tablet/phone with which Samsung attacked the iPhone in TV ads mocking the diehard fans who queue up for latest Apple product. ????The "flagship" Galaxy S III smartphone, introduced in June, was particularly well reviewed -- CNETawarded it an Editor's Choice rating -- and sold briskly. According to Samsung, it took the company less than a month to sell 10 million units, helping vault Samsung -- and Android -- well ahead of Apple and iOS in this summer's race for smartphone supremacy. ????The amended complaint charges that with these 21 products, Samsung has infringed on eight additional Apple patents. They are, according to the filing: ????? '647 -- system and method for performing an action on a structure in computer generated data ????? '959 -- universal interface for retrieval of information in a computer system ????? '721 -- unlocking a device by performing gestures on an unlock image ????? '172 -- method, system and graphical user interface for providing word recommendations ????? '760 -- missed telephone call management for a portable multifunction device ????? '502 -- graphical user interface using historical lists with field classes ????? '414 -- asynchronous data synchronization amongst devices ????? '604 -- universal interface for retrieval of information in a computer system ????The trial is tentatively scheduled for March 2014. ????AppleInsider has made a pdf of the amended complaint available here. |
