Could it be Hiroshima all over again for the Galaxy?

Apple is looking for a court in Japan to block the sale of certain Samsung mobile devices. In the latest shot fired in the ongoing patent war between the two companies, a lawsuit filed by Apple in Tokyo District Court seeks to ban sales of Samsung's Galaxy S and S II smartphones as well as the Galaxy Tab 7 tablet in Japan. In my opinion, Android devices are in fact ripping off the OS that Apple use in their iPhone and iPad, and if the Galaxy line is forced out of the Japanese market, Apple would be able to hang on to their well-deserved market share. But Apple shouldn't fire too many bullets in the patent war because there needs to be at least some competition.
