You know what they say: Imitation is the highest form of flattery. :P

Who knows what their thought process was. It could have been an honest mistake.

It's only pronounce the same if pronounced in english and only if you are not canadian. Personally, I pronounce both in french so they both sound different from each other.

That's interesting :)

Although... If they are copying anyone, it would mostly be similar to Phillips more than they would be us:

How does "Eye See Three Dee" sound like "Eye Zed Three Dee"?
And no, I'm not Canadian. "Zed" is the correct English pronunciation used by everyone except the USA.
Even if it was "zee", "zee" doesn't sound the same as "see".

The intention of iZ3D Is a play on words. Z for the Z axis, and also to sound like "I See 3D". We're a USA company after all :)

No. You are a merger between a Russian company and a Chinese company.

Are people in the USA so xenophobic that you have to pretend to be a US company? Or is it just that the USA has the worst regulation of corporations and thus it makes sense to claim to be a US corporation for legal purposes?

We don't pretend to be a USA company =/

Our corporate office address is this:
iZ3D, LLC
4370 La Jolla Village Drive, Suite 400
San Diego, Ca. 92122

Yes, we are a Joint-Venture with CMO, and our R&D is Russia, but our administrative offices are in the USA. So, we are a USA company.

I understand that things in life don't work the way they're made to sound, hence the "grey" in life instead of a traditional "black and white" world, but still, you don't have to make the problem worse by being a poor communicator. Communicating your point could've been done on a friendlier level, and you just denied us the ability to respect the possibility of that ever happening with you.

Nonsense. People understood my point perfectly well. But they would not have if I had phrased it differently.

Since my point is inconvenient for you though, you would obviously much prefer that people didn't understand it. Which is why you try to dilute it with "friendliness".
