Apple getting asskicked by Cisco

Cisco is suing Apple for the use of “iphone” brand name. Apple has definitely picked up the wrong guy to fight. Like against Apple Records of the Beatles era.
The I-prefix is overused now just like the E-prefix:
imac
ibook
ibook toilet seat
ipod
iphoto
iphone
isuck

    It was to be expected, wasn’t it? Or, is this just another marketing ploy for the iPhone?

    Get a life Cisco. And all this i-this and i-that is so numbing. Time for these branding meisters to get their thinking caps on and think of another prefix. Let’s see, they’ve already used ‘e’ and ‘i’ …that leaves 24 other letters in the english language.

    iPhone + Apple = iCry + Cisco

    They changed iTV to Apple TV, maybe they can change iPhone to Apple Phone.
