Re: Another Wallyland Lawsuit: Wing vs. Google

Maybe now Wing-ding gets a taste of his own poison. How many times he copies other watch company's design and claim his?
But at the end I think he is going to have a huge settlement. I worked for a small software company years ago and the owner went up against SAP and won. He now has a $1M line item in the P&L statement annually.

our friend Wing!!! Android is his registered trademark and now that
Android phones are coming out with watches bearing the Android name, it
is in violation of his trademark. Don't let the little guy lose to the
big corporations!!!

Great points by all. The only thing I can say I know for sure about law, though: I never really know how the fuck these things could turn out, because it's never the way that I honestly expect them to. This one will be fun to follow, for sure. And one more point: Say we all agree Wing's Android's in the right, Wing's Android did it first? I still say the phone Android wins, if they have the better/smarter/more aggressive legal team. Happens all the time; the best lawyers find loopholes and clauses us mere mortals didn't even know were in the books.
