  that doesn't mean they own the word in all possible variations.

    Heh, you'll probably receive a violation notice if you name your product with anything that's of the form "i'm *". Unless you're a big co, good luck fighting MS.

  No, they trademarked the word "i'm" in some small and particular subset of its possible uses. There's nothing to stop you making a car called the "i'm", or a web-based social cause instant messaging advertising thingy (or whatever the hell this is) called "Focus", but trademark law will stop you from selling a car called "Focus" or a (whatever this thingy is) called "i'm". Doesn't change the fact that "i'm" is a pretty bad name for anything, though.
