Its just a name. Don’t know what the problem is with google. Google an over ta tlat in ka hria
Google had to stop using the name Gmail in the UK, the same thing is being fought over in Germany. Daniel Giersch, a German venture capitalist, has who has a six-year-old trademark registration of g-mail, will not give up his trademark to Google. The German courts have required Google to remove all references to “Gmail” on Google’s pages within Germany. Google is trying to argue that “G-mail” is different from “Gmail” and they should be allowed to use the name in Germany. Google is not giving up on this battle, like they did in the UK.

If the fellow took the trademark “six years” ago, then he has every right to keep the trade name.
Google will lose this one! hehe

He trademarked ‘G-mail’ not ‘Gmail’. If Google loses, it’ll be because Germany has funny laws. I don’t see how the hyphen can be overlooked…

They haven’t really ‘officially’ losed anything as yet. This may take years, they say. Anyway, not my headache. As long as it doesn’t directly affect my paycheck
