The word Netbook… It surely means a portable laptop that is designed for mobile always-on-the-go folks, right? Not according to a UK company that owns the trademark to that name. Psion has officially filed a lawsuit against Intel for the use of netbook.com. The guys at Intel argue that netbook is a term that folks have come to use on a consistent basis for ultra portable laptops. Dell is also using the term for its own line of mobile notebooks. Who’s right here? I have to side with the trademark owner. I do believe that the term netbook has now become synanymous with super portable laptops, but that doesn’t mean Psion doesn’t deserve to get compensated for its trademark being used by some very powerful companies.
