And here's where I clear this BS and remind everyone that it is NOT copyrighted, and NOT trademarked and CBS has no right to it (and does not claim to).
I am the author of the LCARS Reader iPad app and have been bullied by CBS many times. Their own general council however admits to having no legal basis for their claims.
What CBS does have is expensive lawyers that usually get their way.
- mikecane 15y agoHey, thanks for letting me know that. I was still under the misimpression from the original report! Did you ever do a blog post about this I could link to as an update on my own blog?
- praeclarum 15y agoSorry, no blog entry. Snarky forum posts aside, I usually stay silent on legal matters. But I will tell you that there are a lot of us LCARS devs and more and more apps are appearing in the store.
- mikecane 15y agoIt would be good to have a formal statement about this somewhere because citing that article has scared some people.
- bane 15y agoAny possibility of an Android version? I enjoy using https://market.android.com/details?id=org.hermit.tricorder&feature=search_result https://market.android.com/details?id=org.hermit.tricorder&#... from time to time, wouldn't mind an entirely LCARS theme'd phone to show off to my friends every once in a while.
