I was under the impression that the regular color Magenta could not be trademarked becuase it was not unique and was considered generic IAW trademark laws.  But you could trademark a variation of it and they would have to prove that the engadget logo is the same variation as the t-mobile logo, which as someone has already pointed out, isnt the same.  I would say, and IMHO, DT doesnt really have a legal leg to stand on in this case since they are merely stating violation of the trademark based on the color and not the color variation.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[WTF]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 1st 2008 9:43AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Deutsche Telekom / T-Mobile demands Engadget Mobile discontinue using the color magenta]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/03/31/deutsche-telekom-t-mobile-demands-engadget-mobile-discontinue/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/03/31/deutsche-telekom-t-mobile-demands-engadget-mobile-discontinue/</guid><description><![CDATA[I call for all bloggers to change their blogs to magenta.

I could see if you were using the same "T" along with the color but by itself, please.  Your color isn't even identical to their's so what are they crying over?  Makes me want to go to all my web sites that I have up and change the color scheme to Magenta and see if they want to come crying at me too considering I do advertise electronics!  You would think they would have better things to do like finding ways to improve their service rather then crying over a color.  Statement of fact: I've used T-Mobile where I live and found their service was not up to standards with dropped calls and no signals. Sprint and Verizon have them beat hands down.  Maybe thats why they are becoming picky over a color. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[NealDavid]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 1st 2008 11:00AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Deutsche Telekom / T-Mobile demands Engadget Mobile discontinue using the color magenta]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/03/31/deutsche-telekom-t-mobile-demands-engadget-mobile-discontinue/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/03/31/deutsche-telekom-t-mobile-demands-engadget-mobile-discontinue/</guid><description><![CDATA[the ONLY thing t-mobile has going for them is that they are gsm. everything else about the company sucks.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jeremy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 1st 2008 11:59AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Deutsche Telekom / T-Mobile demands Engadget Mobile discontinue using the color magenta]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/03/31/deutsche-telekom-t-mobile-demands-engadget-mobile-discontinue/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/03/31/deutsche-telekom-t-mobile-demands-engadget-mobile-discontinue/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have T Mobile and ya we all knowabout the pinkish color but who cares if Engadget ( you nice guys ) uses it.

As was stated clearly in the letter, the goal of their communication with Engadget is, "to avoid any possible confusion with the consumer regarding the origin or the sponsorship of [the] blog."  Since to my knowledge Engadget does not share any business relations with Deutsche Telekom / T-Mobile is seems only logical that any semblance of such a relationship such be avoided, especially on a site where user comments may go largely unregulated.  Since the business relationship (or lack thereof) may not be clear to a user who reads or posts on this site, I believe Deutsche Telekom does have every right to engage in communication with Endadget.  The medium used to engage in such communications was appropriate and respectful to both parties involved. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Hatman110]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 1st 2008 4:01PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Deutsche Telekom / T-Mobile demands Engadget Mobile discontinue using the color magenta]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/03/31/deutsche-telekom-t-mobile-demands-engadget-mobile-discontinue/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/03/31/deutsche-telekom-t-mobile-demands-engadget-mobile-discontinue/</guid><description><![CDATA[ he le  er   is also  rade marked as well.
