5. Just done that myself - more or less anyway.

Since posting this subject I've bought the current Note N7000 having read up on it and decided the Note 2 had features I didn't really need. It really only so's I can take pictures to post on FB with written info saying "wish you here - NOT !"

Its not an issue here in the UK anyway. Here it was not found in favour of Apple the judge more or less saying " you're having a laugh patenting a rectangle with rounded corners." At the time I got my Galaxy 10.1 Tablet last year there was a temporary ban on import by the EU excluding Holland who told them to whistle simply saying " NO - we're not banning them !" I think as such mine came in from Holland via Ebay here.
