Actually I like the sound of that better, because it emphasizes both 3D and HD.

3DNet is a *terrible* name for Discover Channel 3D. It doesn't say anything about content. Consider "Discover HD Theater" as a contrast; great name, and we know what it's all about.

Of course, by the article, sounds like it's not a traditional "Discovery Channel," so maybe 3DNet will work. However, I'm betting this is more about lack of 3D content than anything, and eventually it will probably become a 3D version of Discovery's typical content.

Silly? Perhaps, but that is pretty much the basis of trademark law. I'm actually surpirsed that the USPTO let that one through.

See "Lamps R Us" (now Lamps Plus) for what happens in cases like this.]]>Jan 21st 2010 8:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/21/discovery-searches-for-name-for-3d-channel-3dnet-is-on-the-list/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/21/discovery-searches-for-name-for-3d-channel-3dnet-is-on-the-list/
