Default Amiga trademarks revived to Amiga Inc.
After a dispute with Genesi earlier this year about the Amiga trademarks, Amiga Inc. reclaimed the trademarks and succeeded in doing so.

Although the 'Current Status' of the trademark is: "Application was revived after being abandoned, will be forwarded for further examination", its seems not likely that another party can claim the trademarks.

Is it something they have/had to pay for, or is it something automatic?

My guess is both. At this point, it probably doesn't cost. Once they get approval, they'll owe. Then again, I'm just venturing a guess.

You can view the USPTO's fee schedule here: http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/ac/qs/ope/fee20030101.htm. An attorney is usually involved as well.

Because Amiga, Inc. has a prior claim and it still in business, only Amiga, Inc.'s written permission or transfer of the trademark would allow another entity to use it.
