iPhone Copyright Information

[iago]

Rather than finding the other thread, I thought I'd make a clean one.

Here's a really good article on the iPhone issues (including the previous copyright holders of iPhone before Cisco, and also the legalities of copyrights): http://www.securityfocus.com/columnists/430

Hope that gives you guys some insight.

I prefer to be uneducated.  It makes for more heated arguments where personal attacks are allowed to flourish.  :P

Your a poopy head!  wtf mate, read and become educated like black people wish they could be, but they cant because they arent as good.  arent you indian?  youre supposed to be reeely smart.

Thus, McDonald's hamburgers would not likely be confused with Old McDonald's Farm, or McDonald's Shoes (home of the golden arches?).

...cute

The ultimate issue will come down to this: is there a substantial likelihood that people looking for the Cisco product – or a product with capabilities like the Cisco product – would be confused by the Apple entry into the market?

Looks pretty cut and dry, how boring

You post on Slashdot, don't you? I can tell!

I believe I said something similar to that in the other thread.  So apparently I knew what I was talking about :)


<edit> Here we go:

It depends if they figure that people could get confused between a VOIP Phone and a Cell Phone.  Like, there's a reason that "Windows Vista" can have the same name as a Window store: they are distinct. 

Whatever happens, it's going to work out for Apple.

Actually, I don't.  :-\
