I am STRONGLY skeptical that anyone can accurately measure Samsung's lost sales and get that number from Apple if the case is overturned, but if there's some algorithm for that, then awesome groovy-pants.

As for the free publicity, it will cut both ways. How many people will hear this and think, "Well if I can't get a Galaxy, I guess I'll buy one of those iPads. Better that than nothing." Isn't it going to take 4 weeks before the German ruling can be challenged... before the same judge that MADE the ruling? I read that somewhere.
