SuperSmoker Saint Cigarette Trademark Infringement
In what appears to be a bazaar copyright and/or trademark infringement, it's been noted that there is an electronic cigarette on the market which features the Saint logo.
You can visit the SuperSmoker website for time being, that is until the lawyers show up. This is not in anyway an endorsement of this product. It is a surprised, "hey check this weird thing out while you can" notice.
There is also a YouTube video of the product.
Leslie Charteris, the author of The Saint stories, smoked up until the 1950s when he quit completely and even had Simon Templar quit as well! He was quite adamant about not having smoking around him, and would not be happy about this use of his worldwide trademarked Saint Stickman Logo.Labels: 2007, Leslie Charteris, Saint Logo

During the hollidays I saw a lot of adds of this particular product on the telly and my two well eductated daughters kept asking what that saint add was about!
However the Dutch goverment wants this product from the market since they consider it a medical thing and therefor it should be tested and has to go through the regular channels like anybody else. The Belgium goverment seem to agree on this judgement.
