iPhone???
Everyone loves iPods, and everyone loves cell phones…so when are the two going to be combined in an appealing manner? According to CNN, this may happen as soon as January. There has been a lot of buzz lately regarding an iPhone that combines the interface and look of an iPod with a cellular phone. Some may be thinking “didn’t they release that already?” The answer is “kind of.” Motorola released the ROKR a couple years back that had an iTunes application on the phone, but it could only hold 100 songs at best, and resulted in lackluster reviews and sales. Numerous speculations are floating around, including one that says a Taiwanese manufacture is putting the iPhone together. Actual Apple spokespersons, however, are not commenting on it other than “We don’t think the phones available today make the best mp3 players,” and continue on to say “but we’re not sitting around doing nothing.” Obviously they are working on it, but I am guessing Apple has been holding off on the release for some time because they do not want bad reviews and intend on releasing a flawless product. Being a phone junkie myself, I am pumped if they release this. I just hope they include a walkie talkie on it as well. Bleep bleep.
