ipython: disable copyright and help upon startup

when I start ipython from my terminal, I get following output:

Python 2.7.3 (default, Mar 13 2014, 11:03:55) 
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

IPython 1.2.1 -- An enhanced Interactive Python.
?         -> Introduction and overview of IPython's features.
%quickref -> Quick reference.
help      -> Python's own help system.
object?   -> Details about 'object', use 'object??' for extra details.

In [1]:

Is it possible to supress the copyright and help information? After having seen it a thousand times, I start to find it a little bit superfluous.

Ideally, I would like to see only the prompt In [1]: when I start ipython.

I am using ipython 1.2.1

Use:

ipython --no-banner

Note: I found this with ipython --help, which has a lot of other gems in it.
