IPADSerial 78943226 · Principal Register
Dead · Refused
Owner: Diversified Graphics, Inc
Class 016 - Paper Goods & Printed Matter
Filed Aug 02, 2006
The record shows that the mark “IPAD” is dead and was abandoned by Diversified Graphics, Inc., a Minnesota corporation, because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on August 2, 2006 and abandoned on August 14, 2007. It was registered on the Principal Register for class 016, covering paper goods and printed matter such as note pads and pens, with first use in February 2006 and use in commerce in March 2006. Because the mark is no longer live, it does not give the owner control over the word “IPAD” in all contexts, but the record indicates that a similar name used for paper goods or related printed products could raise the closest concern. No enforcement actions, oppositions, or cancellations appear in the supplied history. The practical risk for someone considering a similar name is that while the mark is abandoned, the specific goods listed remain a potential point of concern if the new use is in the same or a closely related category.

The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
