Say it ain't so....
Galaxy Note 4, other Samsung Android devices facing potential sales ban in U.S.

I think they are spending too much on advertising and need to stop copying ideas.
If can do that, they will be in a much better place

For the U.S. Model it is Qualcomm who is accused of having violated the patent. Of course Samsung is being accused as well with their Exynos Chip. Regardless I can't believe Nvidia is requesting for something so ridiculous, that is, to ban the Note 4 and other phones after all the money Samsung has put into it, NOT! If anything, there will be a judgement against them at the most.
Samsung really has to stop stealing other peoples' [inappropriate language edited by Moderator]. Does a week go by when they aren't in court being accused of patent infringements?
Regardless, I'm sure that no ban will take place. Samsung has been threatened with bans before and it never comes to fruition.
I think this is more a matter of "If NVIDIA doesn't go to the ITC, they will lose their case in court" more than they want Samsung phones banned. Pretty sure Nvidia would much rather get a buck or two for each Samsung phone sold. Targeting Samsung rather than HTC or LG means lawyers will be more apt to talk it all out and Qualcomm and NVIDIA can settle. Ain't nobody cares about >5 million HTC or LG phones, but 50 million or so Samsung phones means a lot more to some rich dude's pocket.
As for the bigger picture, I hate software patents. But at first glance (from someone who isn't a lawyer of any type) some of these do look like original ideas that NVIDIA invented. While I think NVIDIA should share them freely, I imagine in court some of them will stand.
glad i have all AMD product, nVidia, just go away already.
I like my Nvidia Graphic cards for my PC though .
well, next time you upgrade, switch to the red team!
