Samsung Retinalike 118inch tablet in the works according to court docs

If you’ve been following the Apple vs. Samsung case even casually, you’re probably aware that today marked the start of the patent trial in the US District Court for the Northern District of California, with Judge Lucy Koh presiding. And while the proceedings themselves won’t necessarily justify an Olympics-level play-by-play, several interesting bits are sure to come to light.

CEO Rosen Sharma hopes the move will encourage developers to build “retina-friendly” apps for Google’s mobile OS that can then be sold to those on the other side of the technology divide. There’s a sign-up sheet for developers itchy to get their hands on the goods on the company’s website, but don’t expect a response right away — there’s still a few more days of Google I/O to go first.
