Bloomberg reports that Samsung has dropped its lawsuit against Apple, but the legal feud isn’t over between the two companies – not by a long shot.

[ad#Google Adsense 300×250 in story]Samsung filed its counter-suit against Apple in April, after Apple alleged that Samsung copied its iPhone and iPad designs.

A spokesman for Samsung told Bloomberg that Samsung is streamlining its legal proceedings, but indicated that the company is continuing to defend itself through a counter-claim it filed in Apple’s suit against Samsung.

What’s more, lawsuits between the two companies continue to proceed in several countries simultaneously. So we can continue to expect to see more wrangling between Samsung and Apple in the months and, in all likelihood, years to come.
