We have been on top of the situation with Psion Teklogix since the beginning, when they began notifying folks of their trademark for the term “netbook.” We listened to the response to this situation and even heard from the Psion representatives trying to explain their side of the issue.
A group in Australia thinks that netbooks are an endangered species due to this Psion thing and have started a grassroots campaign to “Save the Netbook.” I’m not sure it’s necessary, especially since no one has been sued yet (to my knowledge); but then again, I’m no lawyer. If you want to see what this campaign is trying to do or you want to help save the lowly netbook from an early demise, check it out.
