The dev, Chris Ostmo, tells 9to5 Mac that he sent an email to Jobs noting that his company had spent "tens of thousands of dollars" marketing its apps and that changing the apps' names would require him "to spend to spend tens of thousands of dollars more to market new names."
This sort of sudden policy change is the kind of thing that is destroying Apple's relationship with developers. Small companies like ours cannot continue to take financial blows like that and justify remaining on the iPhone/Pod/Pad platform.
Jobs's response: "Its just common sense to not use another company's trademarks in your app name."
In addition to the lack of an apostrophe in "Its" and the inelegant splitting of an infinitive, there's another error implied by Jobs' succinct brush off: Apple doesn't have a trademark on the word "Pad."
Dakle, ako vasa aplikacija ima "pad" u imenu... sorry, you're out of luck - ili menjajte ime, ili zaboravite iKomunu (tj. onaj ogromni deo koji nije hakovao njihove sprave). GESTAPO je odlucio da zabrani tu rec i stavi je u svoj spisak cenzurisanih stvari... iako nema trademark nad njom :-)
St. Steva izgleda veruje da Apple ima ownership nad troslovnim izrazom PAD. Ocigledno u Apple RDF univerzumu, zakoni i trademarci nisu potrebni - sve sto je potrebno je da Apple GESTAPO nesto proceni.
Eh te otvorene platforme... :-)
A i Jobsov odgovor o "common sense", cak i ako ignorisemo notorni fakat da Apple nema trademark (niti moze u teoriji da ga ima) na rec "pad".. Nije li Apple krsio trademark za iPhone, pa su se kasnije nagodili? Ah da, izgleda da "common sense" nije isti za Apple i ostatak sveta...
Fasisti...
