First Picture of new Motorola iTunes Phone?

swissfondue writes "macprime.ch. is reporting a link to a pdf presentation by Motorola's North Asia manager Michael Tatelman, VP and GM Mobile devices, made on 21 June 2005 to analysts of Morgan Stanley in Beijing. Page 15 of the presentation shows a picture of a yet unknown Motorola phone playing iTunes visualizer, with the usual Apple logo. The silhouette of the phone is not in RAZR style, but in PEBL. It seems to also be featuring a scroll wheel."

    I dont mind people talking and listening to music while driving. I just wish I could watch TV... or maybe it would be better to read /. while driving. Yes insurance indeed.

    Just thinking of running my fingers around that 'continuous radii' gets my intellectual juices flowing! Actually, it's the same shape as Apple's optical mouse ... curious ...

    The whole thing looks a bit so-so to me. Did St. Ive have a hand in the product design?

    "Purity with a purpose - and profits" Hell, yes! I don't see why a mobile run off of an iTunes-like interface that sports similar controls shouldn't work brilliantly ... but the devil is in the deets ... it's the software/hardware integration that will sell me on the device more than the swish swoop of the product itself.
