I will look into that issue and probably write something about it soon. Just at first glance, it seems as though Fujitsu is arguing that they are the "Senior User" of the iPad and iPhone trademarks. I'll bet that Apple will be arguing some sort of ownership interest in the "i" family of marks. It will probably be a tough argument for Apple because of the number of "i" products out there that they probably do not control, e.g., iHome products for use with Apple products (there is probably a licensing deal in there somewhere though). Thanks for reading. Very interesting Steve. I will look into that issue and probably write something about it soon.

Wondering what your thoughts are on Apple's new iPad. I understand that Fujitsu (I think) has a hand-held product used for physical inventory counting and it's called the iPad. In the same article where I read this, I found that Cisco had an iPhone product long before Apple introduced theirs. The article said that Apple planned to argue that Fujitsu "under-utilized" their trademark. Thought this might be an interesting topic for a future newsletter. Steve Interesting article, Mark.
