Because any use of the word 'vivid' instantly make you think of porn,hmm......

Htc should change the name to the HTC XXX for the laugh of it!

Omg this is the stupidest bs ever. How does vivid cause brand confusion I'm pretty sure that an android phone isn't going to cause confusion. Multi mil/billionaire phone company vs random porno company nobody has ever heard of? Yeah htc going to win by a landslide

Next will be the "ZETAs" Cartel to sue HTC for using Zeta as a model of a phone.

I understand the HTC ChaCha cause I thought of the search engine at first but this is just stupid. I don't think someone will hear HTC Vivid and be like "OH BOY PORN PHONE"

Mitsubishi could try to cash in on this for the EVOlution, maybe thats also why its the Rezound instead of Vigor because of Acura :P

The real connection between the two is that you can watch VIVID videos on the Vivid phone. My buddy at work bought this and on just the HSPA+ network he get 13.5 mbps download. Great speed for watching those vids.

more like they wanted there share of money htc does well so why not get money because a phone has same name as adult porn company, its like star trek trying to sue samsung for the nexus because nexus was mentioned in the star trek generations movie.

Vivid Entertainment is another stupid company out there, just like Apple.
