Samsung looking to block nVidia sales

I guess the only way for companies from different countries to battle out their patent problems is to block sales in hopes the attrition will make them think differently.

Samsung filed a complaint yesterday against Nvidia with the U.S. International Trade Commission in Washington, according to a notice on the agency’s website. A copy of the complaint wasn’t immediately available.

The legal battle began in September when Nvidia filed its own ITC complaint against Qualcomm Inc. and Samsung over patented ways to improve graphics. It’s asking the agency to block imports of the latest Galaxy phones and tablets that use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon graphics processing units or Samsung’s Exynos processors.

Some reports claim that this complaint includes everything that nVidia makes including GPUs and Mobile chips.  Let's hope this gets resolved before too long else I might have to find a new phone, destroy some TVs and blow up my washer/dryer combo cause I aint giving up my NVIDIA graphics.
