a month ago now the plaintiff, the defendant. December 3, Samsung official with the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) submitted to the Sharp's prosecution for allegedly infringing its patents related to liquid crystal display device. Sharp, a year earlier infringement lawsuit against Samsung turned into this point between the two giants
2008 . 3 months,Gucci bag New arrival 161720021, Samsung,Louis Vuitton wallet M61217, Sharp in the United States to prosecute violations of the four patents, after 21 months of the trial, the U.S. International Trade Commission ruled last month,Louis Vuitton bag Monogram Canvas M56388, Sharp successful end. Samsung is very angry, Sharp successful because of the consequences of very serious - according to U.S. laws stipulate that the importer may not import products alleged patent infringement, that is, Samsung all with these four patented products will be from the U.S. market shelves.
According to market research firm iSuppli's survey data shows that Samsung Electronics third quarter to just 16.8% share of the U.S. LCD TV boss get on the throne, but relative to the runner-up Vizio (Ray Villa) 15.7% of the market share their strengths are very weak. First two quarters of 2009, Samsung's share are behind Vizio, runner-up, but taking into account the impact the case will soon be forced to the shelves of several models, then, is destined to defeat the fourth quarter.
behind the patent battle, a brutal battle for market share.
in terms of units, Samsung is now the world's largest LCD panel makers, which two years ago, the Until 2006,Gucci bag New arrival 131230, Sony's capacity to be brought after, was the Sony beyond. But in 2007, Samsung CRT compley left his business burden, full capacity production of LCD panels, Sony has been overtaken by Samsung.
in the North American market, although market share with Vizio played in the life and death, but the most dangerous rival Samsung is never going cheap strategy Vizio,Gucci bag Classic 211945-8571, but with the same competitive price as Sony, Sharp and LG . Which is close between Samsung and Sony partner, they build a seventh-generation LCD production line, and is build an eighth-generation line, between the natural Harmony; LG and Samsung are both Korean series, never resort to arms. Only Sharp,Gucci bag New arrival 169935PVC, Samsung in the U.S. real-matched opponents.
even more angry is that Samsung, Sharp LCD panel would break the giants among the unspoken rules compliance for years. LCD panel industry is today on Earth in addition to military projects, the most expensive, highest-tech industries of several core technologies, the make of a six-generation, seven-generation line will need tens of billions of investment, the technology involved, the cumulative patent up on as many as 10,000. The world's major LCD panel giant Samsung,Balenciaga handbag 084328A, Sony, Sharp, LG, Chi Mei and AUO,Balenciaga handbag B084332, never one to put it on the 10 000 patents compley into her arms we all have a part of the patent, and then cross-patent licensing authorized another way,Louis Vuitton wallet N60022, each patent disputes may not only an LCD screen to Zaochu to. Can say for sure, Sharp currently produced with the Samsung screen part of a certain patented technology, Samsung has also produced some screen Sharp's patented technology used Samsung Sharp patent lawsuits between the technology is rare in this part of several only.
However, most panel giant litigation between a patent license, are passed in the following way cross-patent license reconciliation. For example in November 2007 LG Philips and Taiwan panel makers CPT reconciliation between the plasma screen manufacturers Panasonic and Samsung, LG patent litigation between the reconciliation. Sharp won in the last month during the trial of several patents,Gucci bag Classic 170206 9643, Samsung, Sharp rejected any possibility of cross-patent settlement, insisting the Samsung out of the United States sweep of the product.
helpless Samsung is now only an optional war in this way. I am afraid and only defeat, can there be peace.
