Cisco Sues Apple Over 'iPhone' Trademark Use

Today Cisco filed suit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against Apple, seeking to prevent Apple from infringing upon and deliberately copying and using Cisco's registered iPhone trademark. Cisco said it is seeking injunctive relief to prevent Apple from copying Cisco's iPhone trademark, which means that the company is asking the court to make Apple stop using the trademark before the suit goes to trial.

Cisco said it "obtained the iPhone trademark in 2000 after completing the acquisition of Infogear, which previously owned the mark and sold iPhone products for several years. Infogear's original filing for the trademark dates to March 20, 1996. Linksys, a division of Cisco, has been shipping a new family of iPhone products since early last year. On Dec. 18, Linksys expanded the iPhone family with additional products."
