Apple Seeks Sales Bans on Eight Samsung Smartphones
Monday August 27, 2012 11:40 am PDT by Eric Slivka
In the wake of Apple's $1 billion victory over Samsung in its high-profile 
lawsuit over patent and trade dress issues, The Verge reports that the company 
has officially requested U.S. sales bans on eight Samsung smartphones found by 
the jury to infringe upon Apple's intellectual property.
- Galaxy S 4G 
- Galaxy S2 (AT&T) 
- Galaxy S2 (Skyrocket) 
- Galaxy S2 (T-Mobile) 
- Galaxy S2 Epic 4G 
- Galaxy S Showcase 
- Droid Charge 
- Galaxy Prevail

The report notes that impact of any sales bans would likely be negligible, as 
most of the cited products have already been discontinued in the U.S. in favor 
of successor devices. 

Apple is requesting a preliminary injunction covering these eight devices out 
of the 28 devices at stake in the trial, but is reserving its rights for a 
future permanent injunction request in favor of moving quickly to ban sales of 
this subset of devices.
