Apple is currently facing a problem with selling its iPad in the mainland of China. This is due to the fact that a tech company called Proview Technology in China currently owns the trademark iPad in China. Proview Technology in Shenzhen is a subsidiary to Hong Kong Proview International Holdings Limited. Proview also has a location in Taipei which was the branch that registered the iPad name in numerous countries and regions back in 2000. Proview Shenzhen registered the trademark back in 2001.
