So who was it who coined the term iPhone and said that Apple would be launching it soon? Well… there is a small problem. Apple does not actually own the iPhone trademark. It belongs to Cisco who registered it back in the 90s. They tradmarked little i big P hone (iPhone) and it seems that Cisco will be bringing out it’s own range of VoIP products.


For 180 dollars you can get the iPhone dual mode internet telephony kit for Skype CIT400 which looks the same as the Skype handset we wrote about recently. Announced along side this is the iPhone wireless-G phone for Skype WIP320 which is a SIP VoIP phone.

    [...] For those who have been eagerly following the iPhone (which might not be called the iPhone due to some patent by Cisco) then you will be very curious as to what it will look like. Could this picture below be a real picture or is it just fake? We are not sure yet. Should the iPhone (or varient name) be available soon then this picture shows something nice is on its way. More news to follow as we receive it. [...]

Got something to say?
