The battle for the term “netbook”
Intel has entered the fray against Psion and its attempt to claim a trademark for “netbook”. According to CNET:
“Our view is that the term ‘netbook’ is a widely used generic term that describes a class of affordable computing devices, much like the term ‘notebook’ or ‘ultra-mobile PC,’” Intel said in a statement Wednesday.
Intel continued: “In order to continue to use the generic term ‘netbook’ we filed the case. We’re asking for a decision to clarify that the use of ‘netbook’ does not infringe anyone’s rights.”
