iPhone launches today ... ?!

iPhone

Yes, it's the moment we've all been waiting for - not. Linksys launched a product called the "iPhone" today, a family of voice-over-internet (VOIP) handsets (not cell phones.) One of them does sound pretty cool - the Wireless-G Phone for Skype connects directly to Skype through Wi-Fi hotspots, with no PC required. Linksys' amusing product naming raises two questions in the overheated Apple phone debate. First of all, if Apple can't call it the iPhone, what will they call it? Secondly, how the heck did Linksys get the trademark on that name?
