The Apple-Samsung patent battle continues with a casualty-- Samsung loses the chance to showcase the Galaxy Tab 7.7 at IFA 2011.
The Bloomberg report follows orders from a Düsseldorf court banning sales and marketing of the newly announced tablet.
Galaxy Tab 7.7 demo models did show up for the first days of the show-- clad with stickers saying "NOT FOR SALE IN GERMANY"-- but not anymore.
Apple and Samung's legal disputes take place across 3 continents, as Apple accuses Samsung of copying iPhone and iPad designs.
Last August, the Düsseldorf Regional Court ordered a temporary sales ban on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 in 26 (out of 27) EU countries.
