Samsung & Sharp Patent Battle Wages On; This Month Samsung Comes Out Victorious

Last month Sharp won a patent dispute against Samsung too.  Sharp claimed that an LCD module that was included in several TVs manufactured by Samsung violated their parents.  The patent reflected upon LCD technologies such as wide viewing angles and enhance resposne speeds.
