  The one on the right looks better. It's less complicated.

  they both better watch out for:

  I for one agree with Sony Ericsson,

  and just not because I often work for them.

  I think the judge should make Sony pay for Clearwire's legal fees and for wasting the courts time.

  I think they have a point and its an excellent way of ruining their competition. If you look at the brief they use it in the exact same way as the sony logo on the phone, same context. a green spherical logo with a white swirl and the reflection is the same too. clearly infringing on some territory.

  So now Sony Ericsson is the only company that can use a green circle with a swooshy shape in it?

  Well, OK

  i guess it would depend on the specifics of what they have registered. If part of their unique trademark is the dimensional green sphere then thats prob infringement because they are a competitor selling a similar product. Too close.

  OMG. who sues these guys?

  

  I fail to see how the two logos can get confused with each other, despite the similar colours and globes. Sony Ericsson's logo has a lot more punch to it.
