Samsung Pays $1.05 Billion Fine With 30 Trucks Full Of 5cents by Vickiweezy(m): 7:00pm On Aug 30, 2012

When I came across this story, I laughed really hard! How on earthcan Samsung pay Apple $1.05Billion with 30 truck loaded with 5Cent coins, how? That’s the trending news at moment concerning the Apple Vs Samsung Case.
For those in the dark, Apple recently sued Samsung for…
copying “the look and feel” of its iPad tablet and iPhone smartphone.Apple’s claim for intellectual property infringement is phrased as follows:
“Rather than innovate and develop its own technology and a unique Samsung style for its smart phone products and computer tablets, Samsung chose to copy Apple’s technology, user interface and innovative style in these infringing products.”
In a landslide victory against Samsung, The jury on the 24th of August voted that nearly every one of Samsung’s devices infringed on Apple patents aside from its tablets. Samsung was found to owe Apple $1,049,343,540 in damages over trade dress and patent violations for iPhone and iPad. The damages were spread out over all of the various Samsung devices.
Today 29th August however, it is reported that Samsung, in a bid to go with the judgement of the court, has decided to pay the $1.05billion to Apple by sending 30 trucks containing five-cent coins.
Although some say the story might be a hoax, this may present an idea to Samsung since the jury did not specify a single payment method, LOL grin grin grin grin grin
