The text is a little bit confusing ("the new product" might sound like
it's their product), but I see no reason for your "trying to induce"
thing. And I really don't see any trademark violation here. Of course
we have to defend our trademarks but we also should avoid trademark
paranoia.

Just my 2 cents (IANAL)
