Apple sues Amazon over trademark
Wonder how this will turn out. Link.

Quote:
Apple, in a March 18 complaint in federal court in northern California, accused Amazon.com of trademark infringement and unfair competition. The company asked for a judge’s order to prevent the company from using the “App Store” name and for unspecified damages.

store is part of the English language.

Who does Steve-O think he is to rule these names.

it's as idiotic as when Paris Hiliton tried to trademark "It's Hot"
