Sony files curious Qriosity trademark

Sony has filed a trademark protecting the name Qriosity, perhaps reflecting its ongoing love for names beginning with the letter Q (Qore, Qrios, etc).

The filing refers to portable gaming devices and "game services provided online from a computer network".

However, as Joystiq has pointed out, the filing was made by Sony and not Sony Computer Entertainment.

The small print mentions an "online shopping mall" and a "file sharing an information portal in the field of e-commerce" and "online distribution of music, image, or video".
