The part I don't understand is how Apple can call it the "iPhone" when that name was trademarked by Cisco 10 years ago and recently released as a Linksys product??? (some lawsuits coming??)

yea very pricey, too much for me.

One of our network guys got the preview copy of vista and I dont think I laughed so hard when he told how many things went wrong. He couldn't print anything and it was unstable. i guess it will take em another 6 yrs to get it right like with xp

I've been using Vista Release Candidate 1 (RC1) for several months and it has been working flawlessly. Go figure.

I heard about the suit... cheezy bastards... I am not sure who I am more pissed at... Cisco for not being real about it, or Apple for not coming up with a better name... why not "iCell" or "iCom" or "iTalk" or "iMobile?"
