Indeed, a good question!!  Neither VF nor Digital Island appear to have a registered trademark in the relevant classifications - so, open slather I guess

No, not open slather at all.  One of these two companies has a big problem.

Thanks for pointing this out Regs.

Digital Island's design agency created the SIMple concept in early May and we added it to our website later the same month. Vodafone launched SIMple on their website in August.

So to Vodafone we say MANY THANKS FOR THE COMPLIMENT and in future please use your own ideas.
