Onpv Dell battles over ‘Netbook’ trademark_4408

Posted in Boots on April 3rd, 2010 by admin – Be the first to comment

Dell’s point in the filing that the term is generic seems valid. Not only Dell, but Asus, Hewlett-Packard, Acer, Lenovo, LG Electronics, Samsung, MSI, and many others have been using Netbook as a blanket term to describe small form-factor laptops with low-power processors, usually Intel’s Atom chip, for over a year.

But Dell is taking the legal step of accusing the company of failing to defend it properly, not actually using the term for any current products–or for the last six years–and for lying about it. (See Dell’s petition to the USPTO here.)

Dell's Inspiron Mini 9 Netbook.

Here’s how you know how enamored Dell is with the Netbook concept: it’s volunteered to fight over the trademark on behalf of all other Netbook makers.

Psion is a Canadian mobile computer maker that owns the trademark and indeed has sold a product called Netbook in the past. Psion began sending some tech bloggers and Netbook makers cease-and-desist notices late last year asking them to stop using the term “Netbook.” It’s what you’re supposed to do when you own a trademark: defend it.

On Wednesday the PC maker filed a petition with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to cancel a registered trademark for the term “Netbook” by a company called Psion.

Dell has three products that fall under the Netbook category, the Inspiron Mini 9, Mini 10, and Mini 12, but it’s not entirely clear why the company has volunteered for this fight. Is it feeling charitable? Or suddenly passionate about patent and trademark reform? Note that this is the same company that tried to trademark “cloud computing.”

For the next several weeks, Geek Gestalt will be on Road Trip 2009. After driving more than 12,000 miles in the Pacific Northwest, the Southwest and the Southeast over the last three years, I’ll be writing about and photographing the best in technology, science, military, nature, aviation and more in Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, South Dakota and Colorado. If you have a suggestion for someplace to visit, drop me a line. And in the meantime, join the Road Trip 2009 Facebook page and follow my Twitter feed.



Spiral Jetty is, perhaps, the most famous earthwork, and being here for the first time, I can see why. One might ask how powerful a jetty built of volcanic basalt could be, but to walk on it, to see the salt crystals under and by your feet, to see the broad expanse of the lake and the flocks of pelicans soaring overhead, is to understand.

I’ll be posting a full story and photo gallery on it Saturday, as part of my Road Trip 2009 project. But for now, since I’ve got Inmarsat’s BGAN satellite modem with me, I wanted to take a shot at what might be, as Loe put it, the first live-blog ever posted from here.

Blogging live from Spiral Jetty

Spiral Jetty, Robert Smithson’s famous 1970 earthwork on the edge of the Great Salt Lake.

The project was built here, on the edge of the Great Salt Lake, about two and a half hours from Salt Lake City, in April 1970, just as the first Earth Day happened and kicked off a (slow-moving) worldwide movement.

An earthwork, for those not familiar with the concept, is large-scale artwork that is “built on the land with materials of the land, and brings consciousness to the place that you might not otherwise have because you might not go to that place if it weren’t there,” said Loe, an expert on Spiral Jetty and an art historian who teaches at Westminster College in Salt Lake City.

ROZEL POINT, Utah–”The highest tech thing I’ve ever seen work out here is acar and a camera,” Hikmet Loe says to me as we sit, eating cheese and crackers and apples in the middle of nowhere, just feet away from the wonderful earthwork, Robert Smithson’s Spiral Jetty.

After a whole day’s work, I picked up my bag and was ready to leave the office. When I walked out, I felt rather chilly.
Recalling the past, I didn’t watch for the stairs and fell down.When I got up, I was hurt all over. What made things even worse was that the heel broke off.
I told him the problem. He decided to take me to buy a pair of new shoes and then drove me home. We went into a shoe shop.
“Do you like UGG Classic Tall Boots?” He said.
“I have never worn them like ugg short, so I’m not sure if they are suitable for me.”
“I bought a pair of UGG Classic Cardy for my sister last Christmas. She is as young as you. She said the UGG boots were warm, comfortable and beautiful, and she likes them very much.
I accepted his suggestion and bought the UGG Classic Short Boots. Unlike the other high heel shoes, the boots made me feel relaxed.
“Can I invite you to dinner?” He suggested.
“OK! I also want to thank you for choosing the nice shoes for me.” I agreed.
At the dinner, he told me he had fallen in love with me several weeks ago. But he couldn’t find any chance to talk to me. Just now, he saw me fell down. He was worried at that time and rushed out to help me. He was a good guy and did lots of things for his colleagues. He had given me a great impression.Few men could be so attentive and bought the UGG classic short boots for girls. He should be the one that I wanted.
