I don't think that, regardless of the final outcome, whichever party "wins" is going to be in a laughing mood. These kinds of deathmatches aren't good for either party.

And the most likely outcome isn't on your list: sooner or later, they will (likely) settle the case. Out of sheer exhaustion. Or the need to deal with a whole 'nother war:

The European Union is expected to file an antitrust case against Samsung very soon.

According to Reuters, which spoke with the European Union's European Commission competition chief Joaquin Almunia, his office will "issue a statement of objections very soon" against Samsung. Almunia didn't say what would be included in those objections, but the move follows a year-long investigation into Samsung's patent practices.
