Proview held the "iPad" trademark for China and sued Apple for US$1.6 billion in damages.[1] Apple countered that the suit was a shakedown to prop up the company due to its significant debt and impending collapse. Apple ended the dispute with a $60 million payment to Proview.[2]
Proview has been delisted from the stock market and the surviving group have not been able to return to business as of May 2023. Their website is no longer online.
