Apple is Working on Chips for the Post-PC Era

1,000 Apple engineers are working on chip for the post-PC era. The idea is getting low power and smaller. Apple has started building it’s own design in 2009. The whole Apple stuff is 50,000 people, so only 5% are working on the new small and low power chip. It started designing its own chips because Intel and AMD were still stuck in the PC era. The latest A5 processor first appeared in the iPad 2. Now it is also in iPhone 4S. The latest device is now twice as fast as the previous one. Apple is also removing the hard drives from its products and replacing them with flash memory chips including MacBook Air’s storage. So Apple combined these two fundamental changes at the silicon level. So now you can put a computer everywhere. 

Samsung wants iPhone 4S to be banned in Europe.

Currently it is seeking an injunction to get the new iPhone 4S banned in Italy and France. The accusation looks like that - Apple has used 3G wireless technology, which Samsung invented, without paying for it.
Samsung announced: "Apple has continued to flagrantly violate our intellectual property rights and free ride on our technology, and we will steadfastly protect our intellectual property."
As you remember and as it was mentioned before, patent war is still going on between two giants. Apple has already banned sales of Samsung Galaxy series in Austria and Germany.
Some bloggers think that Samsung is acting too fast by seeking an injunction.
