Apple is denied in exclusive using of “i”
Apple tries in vain to prove its originality of "i"
In brief: The judge has not satisfied Apple’s claims and ruled that Apple has no exclusive rights of using letter “i” in its products’ names.Apple Company has failed the lawsuit against the owners of DOPi trade mark. Apple producers iPod players and its lawyers consider that DOPi violates its rights of using letter “i” in the name. But the court has judged other way.
The judge has not satisfied Apple’s claims and ruled that Apple has no exclusive rights of using letter “i” in its products’ names. Such decision has been explained by the fact that there are a lot of products which names begin from “i”: iSkin, iSoft etc. Thus there is nothing new in using this letter. DOPi in its turn explains that their name is a short one of “Digital Options and Personalized Items”.
