I say Apple should rename all their products to how Motorola does.

Does Apple not believe the consumers who spend thousands on their products are not intelligent to know it’s actually not their product?

I'm really starting to get sick of Apple... I've had an iPhone for about a year and a half now.. I think I will be getting the Bold 9700 when I can upgrade. I had a crackberry before and it's more beneficial for me. Love the touchscreen.. but I'm bored of it and don't use the apps enough. and as for DOPi.. A. I love the name. B. Apple needs to stop being a dumb iBitch.

Well, here in the US if you don't defend your patents you lose them. So really, Apple HAS to take action whenever anything could "arguably" infringe on one of its patents unless it wants to lose it.

Hi! I'm a university student, and we've created a survey for a project we have. It's about navigation systems for iPhone. If YOU HAVE an iPhone OR WANT TO BUY ONE, it would be a great help for us if you could answer these few questions. Thank you!! : ) http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/SHKQYTR

Really? I swear this industry has turn into cliche high school drama, with apple as the goodie goodie girl tunred queen B

"Like OMG Apple theres a hoe wearing the same outfit as you" "OMG really, where is she i need to kick her a**"

"OMG apple, that slut HTC is totally sleeping with your ex-boyfriend Google" "OMG Really? but i thought google was with Motorola, I mean she totally dumped Microsoft for him, and i thought HTC was still with Microsoft" "She is, but apparently Microsoft stopped working out and got really fat, i mean thats why Motorola and palm dumped him" "So google is sleeping with both HTC AND Motorola? what a man whore!" "I know right!" "OMG i have some really old embarrassing videos of HTC that would totally ruin her, and i also recently made some vague videos that have nothing to do with her that we can use against her!" "OMG do it!, but what about that b***h palm? she is totally sleeping with you other ex" "I dont care about her, i heard shes like totally anorexic now, she should like drop dead at any moment" "Your so evil" "I know :D"

All it takes is a well informed consumer to realize the product is not Apple. Does Apple not believe the consumers who spend thousands on their products are not intelligent to know it's actually not their product? Hhhmm?

They need to focus on moving forward instead of what they already have done isn't that what they intended the company to do from the get go?!? When they invented the very first mac.

Maybe Apple should change their name, like Prince changed his name to a symbol just to yank Sony's chain. Then they could be referred to the company formerly known as Apple. DOPI says it pretty much for this lawsuit.

Apple should invent a new letter. Then trademark it. That will solve everything.

Trademarks represent big money, and Apple has to protect them so not just anybody can abuse them. Yes, even the letter ' '.

Anybody who says otherw se s obv ously hates nvention, nnovat on, and ngenu ty. Apple s perfectly w th n the r r ghts, you smelly, d rty h pp es!

, for one, th nk we should treat the r ntellectual property cla ms w th all the ser ousness and cons derat on they deserve!

We seriously need some kind of patent/trademark reform here in the U.S. Tort reform wouldn't hurt either.

They could probably just drop the "i" eventually anyway. Since the "internet" is no longer anything new, is it even necessary to label these devices in such ways anymore?

Apple gets on my nerves every time they do something like this. Especially after darn near strongarming companies to get certain naming rights for their products...the same products at issue here.

Apple doesn't get to protect everything "i" but Lindsay Lohan can keep companies from using "Lindsay"? I say we piss them both off and trademark the iLindsay.

I would consider myself a tech geek and I generally know what products are good and are able to tell when something is junk... and it does get a little confusing with everything being named i"junk" . To my knowledge they were the first to use the "i" in their product names. the only thing is that everything is named "i" something nowadays. you could probably go to the grocery store and find idrink and ifood if you looked hard enough... it would be nice to be able to distinguish apple products using the "i" but i doubt its going to work out
