Engadget just received a letter from T-Mobile’s legal department (they point out their German legal department) requiring that they cease the use of the color purple in Engadget Mobile. This is very ironic since Engadget themselves underlined this whole color-trademark issue a while ago.

Engadget is already defending themselves by arguing that there can hardly be any confusion: they are not a mobile operator, they don’t have a problem with US 3G, they have more than 5 friends.

Engadget replied with a NON April Fools Day message.
