Slim PS3 firm goes cease-desist mental over leaked shots

A guy on EG said these cease and desist letters were a publicity stunt by Spong.

Who said it? Piro?

What you mean by “Good luck with that, Chinese firm.” Patrick????

I can’t remember who said it.
And I think the good luck with that refers to removing the leaked shots from the internets.

It’s poetic justice. The Chinese love them some industrial espionage.

I still think that this PS3 slim looks ugly as sin.

Sniper – I mean the chances of getting the shots removed at nonexistent. They’re everywhere.

Basically, I think it’s some knock-off company and these shots aren’t Sony manufactured. But as they look real and therefore people could be putting off buying a PS3 until this comes out, Sony has got the right hump and is threatening to sue this Chinese company unless all traces of their shady knock-off is wiped from existence.

Just my opinion with no factual or insider knowledge to back it up.

If this was some Vii type clone being manufactured I think Sony would have already sued their arses because of all the trademark violations that are on that box.

Patrick i know what you mean by that?
but doesn’t the law force those websites to remove it from their archives ?

Sniper – No. The sites can choose to remove them. The Chinese company’s within its rights to pursue the matter legally if it likes. The Chinese firm isn’t the “law”. A court can order you to do something. Someone’s lawyer can’t.

@Whizzo: I think they couldn’t sue the manufacturer before the equipement is out. For now,. legally, it is nothing more then a photoshopped pic.

The Chinese firm isn’t the “law”

I AM THE LAW.

Exactly.
