Doesn't matter. They still couldn't legally send out the pictures with the Bookeen trade mark. Unlike copyright, trademarks can become diluted, and stop being exclusive to the holder.
The hardware OEM has rights to the design, but not the trademarks that are put on the devices.
Not that it matters much, Isn't this just a shop? So basically, anything from one guy working as a sole trader to a few dozen people with more office workers than techies.
I'm guessing they need a picture, so they got the one closest to what they are selling, hacked it about a bit, and bunged it on the site with no permission either way. Perhaps someone should let Bookeen know.
