I decided to check on when InfoTech registered the name iPhone. It was in 1996. At this point Apple had never used the "i" in any of its products. In fact, it wasn't until 1998 that Apple released the iMac. The iBook was released in 1999. In 2001, the iPod was released.

The point that I'm making here is that the use of "i" didn't have a lick of precedence when the orginal trademark was made.

So, will Apple do the right thing? Will they fight it out? Will they drop the arrogance of assuming that they could muscle use of the name?

I sure hope so.
