aaplfan, After reading some of the other pieces on this trademark issue, i would agree with you. I had the same thought with regards to the Beatles and Apple records. I think Apple will change the name before they agree to giving anything up unless they get something significant in return. If they call it the Apple iPhone as they have it on one of their web pages everybody can still call it the iPhone with most knowing what they mean. I think this is what they have over Cisco right now. Maybe that is why they changed the name of iTV to Apple TV and SJ had trouble remembering that they had changed the name. Maybe it was to show Cisco that they could and would do this. Probably in the grand scheme of things, an insignificant distraction and maybe something the shorts will try to play up to drive the share price down. Neal
