iPad 2 seized in China

A Taiwanese company had taken action against Apple over its right to use the word iPad for its products.

Based on that lawsuit, devices have started to be seized from shops in Beijing and twenty other Chinese cities. Total seizures are very limited, however. The main change is that iPad 2 units are no longer displayed prominently. Unofficially, anyone can still buy them.

They also remain available through Apple's online store in the country. Apple has said it will appeal the decision.
