I thought Cisco had the rights to the "iPhone" name.
Edit: Maybe not - "based on publicly available information from the US Patent and Trademark office, as well as public reviews of Cisco products over the past year. The trademark was apparently abandoned in late 2005/early 2006 because Cisco was not using it"

50%? Is that all? And how did they calculate that?
Does that include R&D costs .. if so, how long until it's repaid (the first unit sold?), and the Gross margin is 95%. If not, how long will it take to recoup R&D costs?
Early adopters always pay more, to compensate for the R&D costs.__________________

Not worth starting a new thread, but worth mentioning...
No surprise...Apple have "won" their case to use the name iPhone after rival Cisco claimed they owned it...the deal involves cross platform compatibility and they can both use the name...money was certainly involved
