I thought that at first, but Apple actually does have an argument 
because Francis put a huge Apple logo on the ebay ad and included 
images of his package that made it look like an apple product. If he 
hadn't included the logo, or if he directly satirized or parodied the 
logo, he'd have a much stronger case. There was too much ambiguity 
there, even if he did label it "unauthorized" (cos we all know people 
don't read).
