German judge bans Galaxy Tab 7.7 across EU

Jeff Blagdon for the Verge:

A ruling from the Dusseldorf Higher Regional Court in Germany turns a new page in the ongoing legal saga between Apple and Samsung, clearing the way for the Korean maker’s redesigned Galaxy Tab 10.1N, but extending a German ban on the smaller Galaxy Tab 7.7 to the entire EU.

Apple has been trying to get the Galaxy Tab 10.1N blocked for months, but it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen. The German courts say it’s different enough from its predecessor.
