Bad news for Apple in Australia today-
See news story just in below
A spokeswoman for Samsung has confirmed the tablet will be launched in Australia in time for Christmas in the wake of the High Court decision in Sydney on Friday.
The three judge panel dismissed Apple's application for special leave to appeal a Federal Court decision overturning a ban on the sale of the Samsung product.
The ban had been in place since October, when Apple was granted an injunction preventing the sale of the tablet in Australia on the grounds it infringed upon Apple's iPad2 touch screen patent.
It was overturned on November 30, when Samsung won its appeal against a ban on the sale of its Galaxy Tab 10.1.
The High Court last week granted a one-week stay to allow it to consider whether to accept Apple's application.
In dismissing it, the High Court also ordered Apple to pay costs

China became world’s largest market of smartphones in Q3
China overtook the United States as the world’s largest smartphone market by volume in the third quarter, according to Strategy Analytics.
Sales of multifunction devices increased 58% in China to reach a record of 23.9 million units. Meanwhile, sales in the U.S. declined 7% to 23.3 million handsets.
The market research firm attributes the increase observed in China to high discounts by operators, as well as the popularity of Apple’s iPhone and some models at low prices, including those made by the Chinese ZTE and with the operating system Google Android.
However, China could not keep its new status long ago, analysts blaming the slowdown in the U.S. is because American consumers expect the next version of the iPhone.
Accordingly, the United States could reduce the gap this quarter, said analyst Linda Sui from Strategy Analytics.
