Has Apple surrendered the "Newton" trademark...?

Newton is the first MIPS-based mini-computer for wearables

A Chinese company has released a computer about the size of an SD card that can run a full version of Android and should make it easier to build wearable devices.



Called the Newton, the computer was developed by China’s Ingenic Semiconductor and is the first development kit for wearables with a MIPS-based CPU. It’s an integrated board, like a smaller version of the Raspberry Pi, aimed at those who want to build and prototype wearable devices.

The Newton’s MIPS CPU operates at 1GHz and the graphics core can play 720p graphics at 30 frames per second. Other features include 256KB of L2 cache, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth attachments, and UART, USB and GPIO connectors. And the board can support up to 3GB of memory.
