#Samsung Sticks It to Apple With Swiss Railways Deal (Updates with comment from SBB in fifth paragraph.
Samsung Electronics sent out a press release last week saying its gadgets had been chosen for a technology buildout at Swiss Federal Railways.
Except that less than two years ago Swiss Railways which is also known as SBB publicly accused Apple of copying one of its designs.
Reto Scharli a spokesman for SBB said the railway operator's decision to team up with Samsung was unrelated to the issue with Apple in 2012.
Swiss Railways publicly asked for bidders for the project and Samsung made the best offer he said.
Swiss Railways will use a smattering of Samsung gadgets#the Galaxy Note 3 Galaxy S4 Galaxy S4 Mini
and Galaxy Tab 3#for employee communication as well as for ticket purchasing and other train services Samsung said.

#Subway Teams Up With Paypal On Mobile payments Ordering your food or beverages by smartphone and then paying for it via an app is quickly becoming the new normal.
Subway and Paypal are working together to turn on Paypal Onetouch mobile checkout experience in an updated Subway app that work across the chain 27,000 U s. locations by the end of the year.
Subway had launched actually quietly a mobile payment solution in its app last fall, but only began discussing the details more publicly this May as it needed time to train staff
and work out the kinks. It still hasn made a huge, splashy public debut, however though that will change later this year as Subway begins to advertise its mobile ordering and payments app for ios and Android.
The app will allow Subway customers to build their sandwiches using their smartphones pay ahead of time (or while in line), then pick up their bag
and run when they arrive at the store. The sandwich chain mobile apps were created previously by Paydiant,
and yes Subway. Now that Paydiant is a Paypal company, it moving to integrate Paypal Onetouch mobile checkout into the Subway application as another checkout option, alongside the app support for Apple Pay and Android Pay.
The benefit to using Paypal Onetouch is that it works across all apps where Paypal is installed.
For Subway the company believes that this sort of simplified approach to payments makes sense for its own customer base,
which also embraces a igital lifestyle. he Paypal customer base is very complimentary to the customer base that would frequent Subway restaurants,
