Apple Apple last week asked the US Patent and Trademark Office to grant it a trademark on the term "Mobile Me," AppleInsider has discovered. My take: I have blogged about this in the past, here and here.

I read the excerpts and it seems like they've left out the kitchen sink :-)
I think that they are casting a wide wide net just in case they ever want to go into an iTMS over cellular.

The filings mention satellite communications. This might mean XM, serious, satellite TV, or anyone of the at least 5 satellite telephony operators.

Basically IF apple were to make such a devive, it seems like it would incude the following:
ATSC, ISDB and DVB-H television
Digital FM, AM radio and satellite radio (XM, serius)
CDMA, GSM, Satellite telephone
WiFi with VoIP
on top of the iPod that already exist today... that seems like an awful lot to cram in!
