Cisco (Linksys's owner) has owned the iPhone trademark since its acquisition of Infogear in 2000. The iPhone is a VOIP handset, using 802.11 wireless rather than standard GSM or CDMA mobile networks. It also features a built-in Web browser."

Apple's lawyer states "While we appreciate your interest in Leopard, it has not yet been released to the public. The software demonstrated in the video must therefore be running on a pre-release developer's build of OS X 10.5." This appears to be contradicted by the video's public availability on the Apple website. Is this another case of Apple bullying those who simply want to give them free publicity?"
