See below an extract from a recent trading statement made by IIIR, looks like they have plans to escalate the issue in the public arena.

When google offered a settlement before IIIR was going through difficult times yet still declined to settle as they have integrity. Now despite googles actions meaning they closed down a whole product line they are going from strength to strength.

-------------------------------------------

"Meanwhile regarding the ongoing dispute with Google over its use of the Gmail
mark, for which the Group has prior pending trademark applications, the Board
notes that its criticism of Google's use of third-party intellectual property is
now being echoed by much larger software, technology and media companies such as
Microsoft, Viacom and CBS. Microsoft General Counsel Thomas Rubin, in
particular, has accused Google of "systematic copyright violation". The Group
increasingly believes that Google's stance on intellectual property is
indefensible and expects to announce shortly an initiative to raise the profile
- with investors, advertisers, users and regulators - of Google's approach to
intellectual property. The Group re-iterates its commitment to protect Group
intellectual property."

I am a shareholder in IIR so have obviously heard of them, I think we are doing the right thing protecting our IP from a company that has no regard for TM rights.

As a public company they are simply doing what is best for their shareholders which is there responsibility at the end of the day.
