Apple settles iPhone trademark issue with Cisco

MacNN reports that Apple and Cisco have settled over the iPhone trademark issue.

Expect iPhone to continue to evoke Apple's phone in everybody's mind, and Cisco's trademark to fall back into oblivion, as it's always been in both cases. Also expect nothing to come out in terms of exploring “opportunities for interoperability in the areas of security, and consumer and enterprise communications”.

Silly lawsuit, indeed, but that's just business as usual, isn't it?
