GIL , I always believed we had very strong case against VIVITAR (SAKAR INT.).

They were always in the category of low hanging fruit . If you look at all the PR

issued so far ,they are always claiming the purchase of VIVITAR intellectual properties.

Sakar International announced on Monday that it has snapped up the Vivitar brand name and intellectual property from Syntax-Brillian in a move to expand its camera line into the midrange digital-camera market and gain greater visibility.

The sale of Vivitar's brand and intellectual property, which comes approximately two years after Syntax-Brillian acquired the camera maker and less than two months after Syntax-Brillian filed for bankruptcy protection, will move Sakar's product offering into a market that competes with the likes of Olympus' point-and-shoot model, Canon's PowerShot SD790, and Nikon's Coolpix S600.
