"i" Belongs to Apple

[music.addict411]

I've heard on other websites that Apple has the rights to the "i" Before iMac, iPod and iPhone.

They got the rights to the letter before the products shortly after releasing the first iMac.

He's completely right. I have to pay a 10 cent royalty to Apple everytime I use an "I".

Damnit, that's a quarter more I owe them!

Okay...bonus question, since you seem to need a challenge.

The same thing. Internet.

 

[26139]

Wrong.

The same thing. Internet.

Nope. What does the iPod have to do with the internet?

 

[dadsp33k]

i own iTourneys.org, never been approached by apple to change it.

Actually it does stand for "Internet." Apple originally trademarked the name for an internet kiosk device that was obviously never released.
