Cisco sued because Apple failed to come to an agreement and sign the papers to license the mark. It would be folly for Apple to continue to ignore Cisco's ownership (along the lines of Phil's truly idiotic comment - I always thought Apple hired SMART people
)
So the two parties really have to come to terms. Apple will probably pay dearly for this.
It's really Apple's fault. They fueled the rumor mills of an iPhone for years. They could have figured out a new name (you can brand ANYTHING) or they should have settled with Cisco much earlier and much more privately.
