Oh the irony!

I'd be wary of those chips.

What I don't understand - Apple use Samsung for some of the parts in their devices....yet Samsung and Apple are continually having a full blow at each other. ATM Samsung is trying to block sales of the iPhone 4S in Japan and Australia. How the heck does that work ? Apple spends billions on Samsung components, then Samsung tries to block sales of those devices ? Apple also successfully blocked sales of Samsung's tablet in Germany

Imagine the crap the lawyers have to deal with... good.

As they say in all the Mafia movies: it aint personal, it's just business.

Samsung is a big company with a lot of subdivisions. The chip division isn't going to let the phone division's problems get in the way of making a tidy profit.
