Apple to Bonobo – Retina is trademarked, change your app name

I don't see why they would be unsuccessful in court. "Retina" is not a term normally associated with displays, so I see no problem with it as a trademark.

But in this context it has nothing or very little to do with displays - just images. Does the trademark still apply? We almost certainly won't find out, since lawsuits are so expensive that Bonobo will presumably just acquiesce.

You weren't aware of it, but it's been posted in other locations that another trademark for Retina by apple specifically covers software.
