And who will start the "iAds" law suit? Google or Apple? DOH! Of course it will be Apple to start the law suits. Google has a different MO. ;)

Are you just referring the the 'i' prefix. Tonnes of companies use that on their products, Intel have been using it long before Apple started to.

Those are not "iads".  ;D

A lowercase "i", usually in a circle, is more or less the universal symbol for "information".

They've been around far too long for Apple to claim them.

Wasn't it Homer who first though "I'll iAd"?
