RetroPod shut down by Sony

RetroPod, makers of iPod cases from the shell of vintage Sony Walkmans shuts down at the request of Sony.

“Your use of casings for such a purpose is a clear infringement of the SONY and WALKMAN marks because it is deceptive.

Consumers likely will be misled and deceived into believing that Sony is somehow connected with the iPod personal stereo when in fact it is not.” Customers with unfilled orders will be refunded through PayPal.
