Redberry upstages Blackberry in China
 Published: Apr 12, 06
Comments: 1 Views: 4,460

On the eve of its long-delayed China launch, BlackBerry is facing a sudden challenge from a cheaper Chinese rival called, unapologetically, RedBerry. The new service, aimed squarely at BlackBerry, was launched this month by China Unicom Ltd., the state-controlled telecommunications giant that ranks as China’s second-biggest mobile operator.

The new RedBerry service could pose a major challenge to Research in Motion Ltd., which is planning to launch BlackBerry in China by the end of next month. Its China launch has been delayed by two years of negotiations and regulatory obstacles, and RedBerry has now been introduced ahead of it. (GLOBE AND MAIL, CANADA)

It will be interesting to see if RIM sues for trademark violations. If they were to do so in the United States or in England, they would almost certainly prevail, but it is certainly more questionable whether the Chinese courts would "see" the liklihood for name confusion. www.chinalawblog.com
