Apple iPhone Rumors Resurface

Posted by timothy on from the shiny-things-to-hold-and-talk-to dept.

donkeyDevil writes: "Following the rule of 'i before e except before P,' rumors of an iPhone resurface in the New York Times (registration required). The evidence: OS features, foiled acquisition attempts, PIXO relations, and the genius of Steven P. Jobs. Unmentioned, Apple's tried phones before. PIE produced a nifty desktop phone design, Apple Europe produced some nice telephone-computer integration software."

    I don't know what Apple Europe produced, but Apple produced the GeoPort telephony stuff. It didn't work great, but some people used it. Some people probably still do.

    THANKS A LOT!

    I just spewed coffee all over myself. I did manage to miss my iBook, but that's the only thing that's still clean.

    obviously you guys are misinformed. The product you are talking about is phone.mac ... it's one of those devices that used to come for free but for which soon you will have to pay hard cash. Other similar upcoming products are : bottleOfWater.mac, coffeeCup.mac and boxOfCookies.mac
