iPhone Released Yesterday by Cisco, not Apple

In case you didn't hear the news, Linksys, a division of Cisco Systems Inc. (traded on NASDAQ under the symbol CSCO), released its iPhone, which is a phone that connects to a home wireless network for making phone calls through the Internet using the Skype service. Skype is owned by eBay Inc. (traded on NASDAQ under the symbol EBAY). It had been anticipated that Apple Computer Corp. (traded on NASDAQ under the symbol AAPL) would be using the iPhone name, but it had been registered by Cisco in 2000.
