Motorola iRadio: competition for iTunes/iPod?

By Barb Dybwad

I've been checking out our Weblogs, Inc. pals incessantly blogging the DEMO
emerging technology conference. One item that caught my eye was Motorola's demo of

iRadio, a technology that promises "totally portable music" for your car, your cell phone, your computer, your home stereo. It lets you do things like pause a song on your stereo, hop in the car and resume on the same note. Order tracks, albums, or programming from various sources.

Could this be competition for iTunes/iPod? Or, since we know that
Apple and Motorola are teaming up to make iTunes available via cell phones, will this be a joint venture of some sort?
