Apple and Samsung have set a date on which they’ll attempt to iron out their differences in a patent dispute that’s headed to trial in March. The companies have agreed to meet before a mediator on Feb. 19, according to a document filed with a federal district court in California, to discuss a settlement of their differences over some smartphone patents that Apple claims have been violated by Samsung. Samsung lost a previous patent lawsuit by Apple and is on the hook for $930 million in damages in that case, which it has appealed.
