"It is also closely partnering with Microsoft (MS) to cut its dependency on Google Android, according to officials Wednesday"

"Google apparently doesn’t want the Samsung setback to drag the whole fleet down and is now distancing itself from its most critical business partner."

Then in a blink of an eye the Android user turned against Samsung.

Ohh dear the Samsung support will soon dry up with the millions of An(droid) users.

That's cool, you do that.

I'll probably do "that" too. I can't even take MS seriously in the mobile front. Good luck to Samsung.

Better get myself some popcorn this is going to be good.

Are the Android users getting their torches lit for the great burning of Samsung?

Samsung are not going to pull out of android as it is there big money maker at the moment and they have just announced the galaxy note 2 and a new amdroid tablet. Samsung also knows that Microsoft and Nokia are going to be pushing windows and windows phone 8 and samsung was a big peace of this market too and have announced a windows 8 tablet and windows phone 8 today too so samsung will offer both platform and will be pushing them both to get there numbers up even more.

"Samsung confirmed that it will immediately sue Apple if the latter releases products using advanced long-term evolution (LTE) mobile technology"

Apple will probably use that extra $1B to come out with a different technology anyway.

copy someone's tech as their own then sue the original creator for copying them..
evil_element  +   291d ago
They cant sue ha. LTE is industry standard technology, not something you can say no to others looking to use it. You can charge them to use it but you cant bar them.
Sarcasm  +   291d ago
Yeah but supposedly Samsung owns about 10% of LTE patents. I'm sure they are just saying that to strike back at Apple with any chance they get.
