re: iPhone???
Although Apple has been very secretive, it is pretty clear that they are working on an mp3 player/phone. In addition to the comments Dennis discussed in his post, recent news all but confirms the "iPhone." Earlier this morning a U.S. patent was granted to Apple. The patent refers to "a handheld computing device cellphone and media player combination with a radio-transparent shell that reflects a handset near the end of its development cycle"(http://www.ipodnn.com/articles/06/11/30/ipod.mini.phone.patent/).
Other features include input devices such as a keypad and a Blackberry Pearl style trackball. Although theres no word yet regarding a walkie talkie function (chirp chirp), theres has an iChat-style messaging interface has been mentioned.
