Fujitsu is selling (from 2003) a multifunctional device to verify
prices in a store and give in real time info about the products in
stock.
The name 'iPad' was released in 2009 because Fujitsu didn't react on
questions from the US patent bureau and trademarks.
But two months later they restarted the procedure to claim the name.
After that also Apple claimed the name.
Maybe like 'iPhone' where they settled outside court with Cisco Systems.
