BlackBerry vs BlackJack equals JackBerry and Cingular wins

Telecoms Korea, reported that is going to be sued for trademark infringement after naming their new smartphone . Seemingly there is a case filed in Los Angeles Federal Court by (you guessed it :-)) better known for their OS and a line-up of phones.
The apparent idiocy of the forthcoming lawsuit (in my view it should have never been accepted in court for it is obviously stupid, but we are in a different jurisdiction anyway) should not overshadow the actual screenplay.
Take my prediction: Samsung looses the first round and wins on appeal. This will keep the case afloat in the media for months and both BlackJack and BlackBerry will get tonns of free brand exposure. And the real winner is….. of course that just rolled out both of these in their smartphone lineup. Whoever wins, legal expenses are minimal compare to sales profits or either of those two. If you look from Cingular point of view - it does not sell Berries or Jacks - it sells JackBerry.

Apparently also:
Earlier, Samsung used the name Hero, the original brand name for Pantech MVNO phone launched through Helio for its products distributed in India.

izenMobile Krma - another brand another phone?

izenMobileizenMobile KrmaDid you ever hear about izenMobile San Diego-based company? I am not insisting that this company is a pure fake, but izenMobile looks really weird. Probably, few individuals trying to get in on the action. I do not have too much to present you, only some press photo of Krma (?) and press release with Krma specs. Few words about photo - I would call Photoshop on this and not an impressive one.
On the other hand I really liked this enlightened Buddist approach to marketing, just can’t figure out how exactly ZEN Buddism and Karma are supposed to attract business customers that are presumably the main target audience for the phone and the company. But little do I know since it is San-Diego California after all :-)
