More iPhone stuff

[dracodraconis]

Cisco may not have as tight a claim as originally thought, not if they failed to keep their trademark active. According to this Engadget article, "...On 11/16/2005 Cisco missed that deadline, but was granted a six month grace period, which it just barely squeezed through. Unfortunately for Cisco, a "Declaration of Use" requires demonstration of active use, under penalty of perjury. Cisco merely slapped an iPhone sticker onto an existing VoIP handset it was producing..."

Meanwhile, Apple's use of the term "Visual Voicemail" may violate ANOTHER trademark. Looks like the knives are coming out in force, and it's an Apple everyone wants for dinner.
