A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

No, it was actually iPhone:

Huh, I never heard of that one, I knew they licensed iOS.

I'm surprised Cisco let iPhone go so easily, considering the immediate popularity of the brand when Apple released theirs.
Seriously, they let it go for nothing. When did Apple and Cisco ever integrate products?...
Edit: Also it says they're both allowed to use it. I would love to see Cisco come out with an "iPhone" in 2023 lol
Honestly, there would probably be far more backlash against them than benefit. But it would be hilarious.
I wonder if they got some help with early app development, or something. I've always avoided Cisco, so I don't know if they offered any mobile management or monitoring tools early on.
