The court case over copyright infringement has been won by Sony
Recently there has been ongoing battle between LG and Sony which saw LG seize 300,000 Playstation 3s in Europe. The court have met again today after the ten day ban on Playstation imports had finished.
However, after LG's success in the first court meeting, it has now backfired on them. LG has lost the court case and now has to pay one hundred thousand euros for the cost of the court hearings, also on top of that they have to return all of the Playstation 3s to Sony, and for every day the right number of Playstations is not returned LG will have to pay two hundred thousand euros.
However, these fines are only in place due to LG's seizure of the consoles, the patent breach case's verdict has still not been reached.

In Flames Much?
SONY has only won the right to keep importing PS3s by the dutch ports (it how the PS3 is shipped around the EU)
The patent case still carries on...and set for nov
Also sony and LG said they are willing to talk before then
Sooo
Sony now can import PS3s back into holland after the court said the block could not longer happen. LG had to pay the costs as a results. I say cost as in the court case costs (not sure if other costs are also being paided ).
One thing to say.....
It interesting how this plays out and well a view into the patent system. IF LG had a go at this in the UK it unlikely they would have got the ban. Holland has a strange law LG used to do this.
