Does the e-mail exchange between Apple and Proview Technology record the sale of the iPad trademark to Apple?

The correspondence between Apple and Proview Technology chronicling what looks very much like the successful sale of the iPad trademark between the two companies has made its way into the wild.

Fifteen pages that include e-mails between Proview and IP Application Development Limited (the U.K.-based firm that bought the name off Proview), were posted this afternoon by All Things D.

The files are in conjunction with a Hong Kong court decision from July of last year, wherein the judge sided with Apple, saying the company continued to own the rights to the iPad trademark in the country.

In the pages there are e-mails and forms covering:

• The agreement on a price, which was 35,000 British Pounds (about $57,900 at the time of the deal)
• A signed form that details the transferring and assigning of the trademark, as well as a stipulation that the company wouldn't "bring opposition, cancellation, rectification and/or any other proceedings against the Trade Marks," based on prior rights.
• A note that the trademark belongs to "a Taiwan company" and not one based in Shenzhen
• Two notarized forms containing signatures inking the deal
