Returning to the original topic of this thread, I see that the injunction has now been lifted (except in Germany) pending a further court hearing on 25th Aug:

A Düsseldorf court has temporarily reversed a portion of a preliminary injunction against Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1, allowing the company to sell the tablet outside of Germany.
Patent blogger Florian Mueller confirmed the news with the Düsseldorf court and said the "simple version" of the story is that "nothing changes for German customers, but Samsung's Korean parent company is free to sell again—for the time being—in EU countries outside of Germany."
That could change again at an August 25 hearing, but for now, Samsung is no longer banned from selling the Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Europe, except in Germany.

today's reversal isn't a judgment on the merits of Apple's case. Instead, it questions whether a German court has the right to enjoin a Korean company from selling products outside of Germany.
