PhonePod?
File this in the rumour bin: according to “a source,” Motorola and Apple may be collaborating on a combination iPod/phone device:
I just received word from a source/friend, that is very close to Motorola, that Apple just inked a deal with Motorola to jointly produce a motoPod. The assumption is that this will be a telephone base iPod using Motorola’s technology, however, I have no information to confirm that. My friend is fully aware of my obsession with Apple products and that is why he shared this information with me. I am wondering if this speaks to the recent discussions regarding Apple’s large purchase of flash chips for use in an upcoming iPod.
Sounds dubious, and my first hunch is that Apple is not about to jump into the mobile phone business. What do you think - fact or fabrication? Who would this device be marketed to, other than mobile DJs who want to call in their sets?
