Trying to trademark T1 for a product in the telecommunications field should be a quick rejection. T1 has been in use for decades and refers to the 1.544 Mbps standard Data Line service available from telecom companies.

I'm no trademark expert but since T1 is a type of technology, not a company I don't see why it would be an issue. But maybe since both are telecommunications related? I don't know.

But agreements can be made if the money is right. Most people forget (or don't know) It was Cisco Systems that held the trademark for 'iPhone' until crApple came into play. The iPhone name first came out in the late 90s by a company who's name escapes me, Cisco bought the company and the rights to the name. The iPhone was series of Linksys branded VoIP phones in the early 2000s. Cisco should have told crApple to go pound sand and let Jobs have a hissy fit. They sold out.

But sometimes agreements can't be reached. Ford owns the trademark for 'Model E' which makes the Muskrat's hideous looking car line up a little less S3XY. As a Ford guy it makes me smile that it was FoMoCo that threw a wrench into Kaptian Ketamine's plan.
