A North Korean government-owned technology company in this closed Asian country has announced the launch of its new tablet-PC, which is only a replica of the tablet-PC. To the American Apple Company "ipad", this new announcement reveals the violation of intellectual property rights by Koreans, which is a popular practice in North Korea.
At a time when South Korean technology companies, led by Samsung, are engaged in a judicial war with Apple on the issue of patents and intellectual property and are exposed to harsh fines in this regard, the competent North Korean state institutions are not very much mobilized, as confirmed by recent reports.
According to press reports from North Korea, a government company named "Ryonghung" launched a new tablet-PC named "Ryonghung ipad", a replica of the apple's ipad, which is directed by the media to senior officials of the country's ruling party, is understandable in a country where access to the intranet is almost impossible.
The Ryonghung ipad will come as revealed by a number of technical specifications, including 1 gigabyte (GB) of RAM and 8 GB of internal storage capacity. To a 1.2 GHz processor and the device will come with 40 applications installed by default, and it is not likely that Apple would make any legal move towards the North Korean company.
