Possible legal issues with similar company name?

Just seeing if I can get some insight from the GFY legal experts here.

Say there is an existing company named "TelToon" selling widgets on a B2C basis, and only seems to do business in one country.

Your company will be based in a different country, and named "TeleToon" and is a B2B service provider.

The businesses are non-competitive.

Say they own the domain TelToon.com and you own TeleToon.com

INAL, but I don't see any legal grounds for a cyber squatting case in the event of a domain dispute.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.
