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.
More commentary here at Slashdot.
Ah, the internet is such a great source for these parodies. Here’s one ironic look at a mythical Florida voting machine.

As widely reported today, Apple is suing Mac-rumors web site ThinkSecret.com specifically mentioning published articles on the headless iMac and the iWork office suite.
Aside from adding tremendous street cred to ThinkSecret and the likelihood that these rumors are true (heck, even Reuters ran a story on the headless Mac), it seems odd that Apple would get so ramped up about products which will be publicly announced soon. As a big Mac fan, new product rumor mongering is a favorite pastime, and it seems draconian to be coming down on TS. Curious to see what happens next…
