IPhone vs. iPhone

Cisco Gets Jealous Over Apple's Dream Toy

Based on the fact that it's Apple, and Steve Jobs, and a tagline that reads: "Apple reinvents the phone", I think that Cisco doesn't have a hope in hell, and Apple Inc. knows it.

As of late Wednesday, Cisco Systems is suing Apple Inc. in US Federal Court for their trademark on their own handheld device, IPhone. That's with a capital "I". Apparently, Apple has been repeatedly asking Cisco for its' permission to make use of the brand, a name the company has held for 7 years.

I think the legal team over at Mr. Jobs' Mecca has likely been over this one, and this was just part of the grand master business plan in launching what is the most lovely phone ever to grace this land. Not to totally write off Cisco, I mean, it's Cisco and all, but, well, come on, it's Apple.

I'm sold on the iPhone. Who wouldn't be after that keynote? And once those inevitable bugs are worked out and the price drops a wee bit, oh yes, it will be mine.
