Fujitsu to sue Apple over ‘iPad’ name rights?
News Fujitsu to sue Apple over ‘iPad’ name rights?
According to the NYTimes, Fujitsu will be suing Apple over the rights to the name iPad.
In 2002, Fujitsu released a real-time, portable inventory-management device called the “iPAD,” which was last updated in 2006.
The iPAD runs with a “PXA 270 processor with Microsoft Windows CE .NET 5.0, together with a 802.11 b/g radio and Bluetooth v1.2.” Companies such as Current Directions still advertise the sale of the product.
PCMag says there is one problem: “The Fujitsu iPAD trademark stalled because of an earlier filing by another company, Mag-Tech. Fujitsu let its application lapse, but revived its application. Apple has asked for more time to fight the application.”
