Psion gave "good" on the "netbook"

Competent comrades from Western journalists shared the information that the company Psion, which owns the Netbook trademark (“Netbook”), abandoned its claims to this common word today.

Let me remind you that at the end of the year, an unknown Psion started a campaign to ban the use of the word “netbook”. In the legal "float" Psion pulled Intel company. And later received for its unflattering activity from Dell . But now all this is in the past. Psion and Intel entered into a settlement. Result: Psion voluntarily revokes the rights to own this trademark. So now everyone can use the word "netbook" as they please. And vendors, and journalists.

More information is not available. Does she need it? Agreement reached, current claims withdrawn. "Netbook" - free. And the PR-action of Psion is over. I hope not in their favor. ;)
