T-Mobile trumps all other April Fool jokes
on Apr 1
A bit ahead of the game, Engadget Mobile released their April Fool joke last night in the form of an article reporting that Deutsche Telekom has sent them a letter asking them to stop using the colour magenta, as T-Mobile, a DT-owned company, uses it in its branding.

I mean, really, guys!
