The maker of the Nabi tablet computer for children sued Toys R Us Inc on Monday, saying the world’s largest toy retailer stole trade secrets in preparing to introduce the rival Tabeo tablet this month. The lawsuit filed in federal court in San Diego, California, seeks to stop Toys R Us from selling Tabeo ahead of the all-important holiday season. Nabi creator Fuhu Inc contends that Toys R Us agreed to become the exclusive seller of the Nabi last year to learn product secrets before bringing Tabeo to market. Read the full story at Reuters.
