Do we talk about chinese market?
What impact has Hyperion on chinese market, especially on mobile market, and do they have trademarks registered in china?
Legal actions against them would be fighting like a kid that is spitting at a box champion.

Is AmigaOS registered for mobile devices too?

Well, they may try to walk the SCO way, sueing them annoyingly, for being bought as part of an agreement outside the court.
 
SCO failed.:D

I'll wait and see, if the "lame" phone maker (first tier luxury cell phone producer in the east) strikes back, take legal action against pitifull nameless os maker, and force them to change AmigaOS into something less "infringing" like HyperOS. Yeeeks, i gonna p my pants if this is gonna happen. :roflmao:

It's being released in 40 other countries, not just China.

If you don't find a way to stop a company in their homeland, you have to take legal actions against infringement in every country, one by one.

I've started investigating to find out the current owner of an AmigaOS related trademark. Let' start in the U.S.A.
http://tmsearch.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4808:i46rnk.6.14

That's the only information regarding the U.S., and   ....
  ... IT'S DEAD, JIM !!
 
Well, does anyone knows anything about the remaining 39 countries? :D

Why are so many hellbend on seing Hyperion fail?

No one wants to see them fail. It's you not getting the joke behind all that.
Remember that, despite X1000 and OS4, the only continued products branded "AMIGA" are :
-legal actions
-copyright claims
-announcements
-restarts
-vapourware
-smoke and mirrors.

Before you take this too serious, help me finding registered trademarks in 40 countries, that belongs to any of the mentionend companies. ;)

At least here in germany,  "Amiga OS"  is a valid trademark. Date of expiration is Nov-31-2015.
Registered owner: Amiga Inc. NY, N.Y.
Registered to everything from paper press media to development of hardware and software, computers, calculators, modems, etc.

Amiga as trademark has expired.
Amiga as pictured text is registered. Looks like in attached file.


Battleground 1 found  for "likeness". Not an infringement!
Still 39 missing.  :roflmao:

That is obviously completely wrong, as Amiga was a registered trademark of Commodore-Amiga, etc. for many years.

And that is completely wrong, because trademarks to Amiga as computer system, electronics, calculator etc has expired long ago.
There is no such trademark, at least not worldwide.

Basically the trademark Amiga for computers is alive and registered to Amiga Inc Delaware and Commodore USA.  Since CUSA is dead and it's the wrong AI, it will be interesting if they can be renewed.  

Amiga Inc is still producing something computer related, games for Blackberry, so they likely meet the activity requirement....

well, in Europe it's dead already, as i told before.
In the U.S. it is even more dead, all trademarks concerning Amiga and Amiga Inc. represented by attorney D.Cohen are abandoned.
See attached results from USPTO.

There is no such thing as "Amiga" for computers, but for bathtubes and shoes :D.
And i don't care what Amiga Inc. is currently producing or "licensing" or co-operating. To me, it's all FUD. :destroy:
