Your daily Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) patent suit update: In a preliminary assessment, a German court shot down Apple's claim that a redesigned version of Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1 still looks just like the iPad. A prior ruling that the original version imitated the iPad's design (not exactly a complex one) had led to a ban. Apple can take solace in the fact that sales of high-end Android tablets have thus far been dismal.
