Link: Surprise iPhone launch – Phones & PDAs – Gadgets – Technology – theage.com.au
The much-anticipated iPhone has been released. Surprisingly, it has no music functions and it’s not an Apple product.
The phone that everyone was expecting Apple to bring out – a hybid iPod-mobile phone – was instead launched by Linksys, a division of Cisco Systems.
Cisco has owned the iPhone trademark since 2000 when it took over a company called Infogear, which had registered the name in 1996.
Apple was expected to launch its hybid phone at the Macworld trade show which begins on January 9.
Pffft.
Next.
