Now, it&#8217;s\u00a0 struck a major blow against Samsung. A federal judge in California has ruled that the Galaxy Tab Android tablet is \u201cvirtually indistinguishable\u201d from Apple&#8217;s iPad.<\/p>\n<p>Considering that Samsung shelved an unreleased version of the Tab to recast the product to better compete with the iPad, this is not a shocking revelation.
