It seems that Oddworld Inhabitants have been up to things, recently filing a number of trademarks with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Although, they're not under the name of Oddworld Inhabitants, Inc. They're under the name of OddMobb, Inc.

OddMobb is definitely another name for OWI, albeit a separete company. Lorne Lanning is listed as "Lorne Lanning, OddMobb Inc." on the Social Gaming Summit 2009's list of attendees.
