The Nexus is also the first smartphone to be powered by the most recent Android operating system called "Ice Cream Sandwich," which includes a unified search feature that lets users search information stored in various locations with a single input. As a result of the sales ban, Samsung and Google's "co-developed flagship device for the current generation of Android will have to be stripped of some or all of its Siri-like functionality," Mueller said in an emailed response. Samsung said it is disappointed with the court order and will take all legal measures. "We are currently working closely with Google to resolve this matter, as the patent in question concerns Google's unified search function," said Nam Ki-yung, a Samsung spokesman. "Samsung will continue to take all available measures, including legal action to ensure the Galaxy Nexus remains available to consumers." Apple did not return calls seeking comment.
