This set of very suspect snaps showed up on someone’s iDisk yesterday – could this be a very crafty mockup, or is it in fact the headless Mac we’ve been hearing so much about? This seems like it might be one of those typical pre-MacWorld hoaxes. But hey, who cares. It’s kinda fun to look at. I’m suspicious in that we don’t see a video port on these photos of the ‘iHome Media Centre’. And why has Apple gone all ‘UK-style’ on us?. Or perhaps there is no VGA/DVI port for this baby – it’s gonna be an s-video out or some kind of wacky outboard composite connector or something. Or maybe it’s truly meant as a media server, no head, only connected to via a remote PC or Mac. I dunno, but it’s fun to speculate wildly, isn’t it?

From PCMag this morning –

“Speaking during a keynote at the International Consumer Electronics Show here, the executive demonstrated the phone, which in many ways mimics the iPod. It syncs with a computer and the iTunes Music Store like an iPod does, and incorporates the iPod interface for navigating and playing digital music, said Ron Garriques, a Motorola executive vice president.”

Too bad it’s not a Treo, though.

Ok. Apple is one of my favorite companies. But why in the world would are we hearing about two really draconian moves this week. First, the suit against ThinkSecret. Now, Macintouch is reporting that Steve Jobs Macworld SF keynote will not be webcast, nor will it be uplinked to a satellite feed. Here at CNN, our incoming routers always carried the keynote, and you could always count on the Mac geeks around here (including myself) to be found glued to the TVs at their desks for the duration. I don’t get it.
