Samsung: "The market will side with those who prioritize innovation over litigation"

Samsung responds to losing to Apple in a patent trial last week

Samsung management told the company's employees that it will eventually be vindicated in its fight with Apple.

The company claims in the memo, which was sent to all employees, that it wanted "to negotiate with Apple" rather than head to court, but the iPhone maker balked. Now that it's facing a more than $1 billion payout, Samsung told employees that it's a company that centers on appealing to consumers -- not patent law.
