    Re: FS: New RPL Green 450mW w/ extras!

    Re: FS: New RPL Green 450mW w/ extras! Hi Aseras, you are correct, the 1st to use the name in commerce does have "common law" rights so to speak. I spent this morning at my attorney's office and Optotronics filed the online trademark application "RPL" for non-medical laser use. It only costs...
