IN an attempt to bring this conversation back on topic - what impact does this have on the Costco/Casio decision a while back? IIRC Casio sued Costco for selling watches that were meant ( & priced) for the European market. Casio claimed (and won) that Costco was infringing because of a small logo on the udnerside of the watch.
Not sure any more if that was Copyright or Trademark but I thought it applied here.

Sparrows?
The African or European joke should be swallows, not sparrows, IIRC.
