Still, there is a clear difference between CallVantage and Vonage in the name. I don't see what they have to complain about. These lawsuits are totally dumb. -- My Domain Nightfall's Hockey and Life Journal
That would explain how I ended up with both services..:D
I agree... the names issue does not matter to geeks like us... but have a look at the mailbag on this website and you might come away with the idea that some people will have trouble with this similarity...
I was a beta tester for AT&Ts Consumer Digital Service [CDS for short] - I think Vonage has it right though I really don't think the argument holds any water...

Actually Vonage has some truth in this. Vonage and Vantage are too close. Also CallVonage.com and CallVantage.com are ridicously similar so ATT wants to try to trick some customers away i am sure that's the whole purpose!
Also about Lindows and Windows. Note that Windows IS a GENERIC word. That's why windows did not win the case in US, and that "L" in Lindows is too noticeable to be a threat.
reply to Nightfall The lawsuit gets their name into the press without having to pay for advertising!!!! And I am sure that they have lawyers who need something to do given their retainer fees that they are receiving. Ah yes the legal system, where the more frivolous the suit the more ink it gets from the press. Lawyers....you gotta it.
