Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster predicts "only minor impact" on Samsung and Google from the recent patent infringement win by Apple.
"We believe that Samsung is likely to make software modifications to devices to work around the patented software features in question," says Munster. "For devices that infringe on design patents, we believe those devices may no longer be sold in the US; however, it does not appear that newer devices, including the Galaxy SIII are impacted."
But we still can speculate on whether the hiccup will be beneficial for Nokia, Microsoft or others.
