Google doesn’t own gPhone and “Google Phone” trademarks

25 August 2007 - 4:08

Russell Shaw of ZDNet points out that that Google is darn fast when it comes to securing trademark for products and services it releases. Can we expect Google to pull an Apple (see Apple vs. Cisco), since the gPhone trademark was filed by Micro-g LaCoste, Inc., a company in Lafayette, Colorado, on March 5 of this year.

The gPhone trademark that would represent:

An accelerometer employed as a gravity meter for use in full bandwidth monitoring of ground motion related to earthquakes, volcanology, tectonic movements, aquifers, hydrocarbon and groundwater reservoirs, glacial rebound, glacier studies, earth tides, long period seismicity, and for geologic mapping and other geoscientific applications.

Keep in mind that the trademark has not yet been granted to Micro-g LaCoste, Inc. According to the info here, the gPhone trademark application will be “published for opposition” on September 11. If Google or others that wants to fight for the mark, that’s the time to raise objections.

Oh yes, there’s no “Google Phone” trademark app on file.
