Pass me the kleenex, I'm going to cry for the loss of protected trademark status. (I had to google for the technical bits. Beats having to xerox them at the library.)
While I agree that deliberately marketing a new product with the name of an old one (that you don't own) isn't kosher, the public is going to use the terminology that it uses. Pretty much all that's left is to remember that this means you won mindshare.
