Psion countersues Intel in ongoing “netbook” patent claim
Posted in: Netbook, tags: countersue, Intel, Netbook, patent, psion, trial
In an ongoing effort to protect its supposed patent for the now generic term “netbook,” Psion has countersued Intel and has charged the company with Trademark Infringement Under The Lanham Act, Common Law Unfair Competition, and Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act, among other charges. Psion has also demanded a “trial by jury on all issues triable by right to a jury.” This whole issue is slowly getting ugly. Why can’t we just get along with a name and move on to making great new products that people will actually care about and use to make their lives better, eh Psion?
