Yes, since Cisco owns a few other patents I would consider even more universal. They were granted "triple play" - around the entire concept. If they choose to enforce that...

And that Cisco Phone may be the one incorrectly using the iPhone name... http://blogs.zdnet.com/Burnette/?p=236

That doesn't make Cisco "the one incorrectly using" the trademark.

It is only suggesting that Cisco didn't necessarily take the steps it should have to protect it. That does not give Apple any additional rights as Apple was very well aware of Cisco's ownership of the TM.
