Talks between Apple and Cisco over the use of “iPhone” went well into the night before Jobs announced it to the world on January 9, 2007.  Immediately following the announcement, Cisco slapped Apple with a lawsuit for trademark infringement, an unfair competition complaint.

The two companies negotiated back and forth for weeks, and Cisco was kind enough to grant Apple a weeklong extension to work things out.  An agreement was met on February 21, 2007 – allowing Apple to freely us iPhone on their devices…the rest of the info you’ll get from the comic strip below.
