In what turns out to be a non-event for all those hoping for something juicy, Apple and Cisco settled their dispute over the iPhone trademark. See Apple’s press release. See Cisco’s press release. The interesting thing about these two press releases is not the fact that they are identically worded – look at how the registered trademark symbols (that would be the ® symbols) are used. In Apple’s press release, they use the ® only for Apple, and in Cisco’s press release they use the ® only for Cisco. A rather ironic result in a trademark dispute.
