What I find surprising is that the "iPhone" had been the iPhone for years - on rumor sites. It's was the logical name for an Apple phone in the days of the "i" products - the iMac, iPod, iTunes, etc. Although the "iPhone" was trademarked by Cisco two years before the iMac's introduction, it had nowhere near the popularity or significance at the time. Even now, people look at "i" products and assume that it works with an iPod, or a Mac (iLounge, iHome, iSymphony). The iPhone is just another product that was released with the "hip" i-name, popularized by Apple. They might have a case with that..
