Apple or Proview? Who's really the holder of the brand of IPAD?

 Apple deliberately concealed his true identity at the time, by creating a company called IP Application Development Limited which, when shortened to IPAD. Proview accused, it was done so that Apple can more easily negotiate the price.

Proview itself had collapsed in 2010 due to global crisis and abandoned factories located in Shenzen, China. They even threatened removed from the stock exchange in Hong Kong.


Proview Technology dispute lawsuit against Apple iPad trademark continues. This time, Proview Technology Apple rejected the settlement offer.
Apple is actually offering the brand by offering a settlement payment of an indemnity of 16 million U.S. dollars. However, as the holder of the brand Proview IPAD rejected.
Proview rejection was reported by news website of Sina. The news comes after it emerged Proview Technology against Apple's lawsuit was rejected by the High Court of the State of California in Santa Clara County, United States, Friday (04/05/2012) local time.
In the claim is rejected, the Proview require Apple to want to pay 2 billion dollars. Both companies are actually required to take the path of peace.
Both companies share a product called by iPad. If Apple has a tablet computer iPad, Proview has all-in-one PC called by IPAD (Internet Personal Access Device) that was developed in 1998 and went on sale in 2000.
Apple claims to have bought iPad from Proview brand in 2009. Apple spokeswoman, Carolyn Wu, said that at that time a company acting on behalf of Apple went to the Proview in Shenzen, China, to negotiate and agree to buy brand iPad.
Proview and Apple have been fighting the law in China. The Apple said, Proview just want to get more money from the trademark that has actually been paid. But alas, China stated that law enforcement is the rightful owner Proview iPad brand in China.
In his complaint in the U.S., lawyers Proview Xianghui Xie said Apple has made fraudulent action when buying the rights to the iPad trademark in China in 2009.
