AppleBerry Predicted?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the the-fruits-get-together dept.

dr_fatty writes "The Globe and Mail is reporting that analyst Peter Misek, who predicted a partnership between Research in Motion and IBM, is now predicting a partnership between Apple and Rim. The predicted result? The AppleBerry. 'Such a deal would have huge merit because each company lacks what the other provides. RIM wants a firm foothold in the consumer market and Apple doesn't have a presence in the booming wireless data sector, he said.'"

    And I just bought my blackberry!

    Oh well, enough people think that I'm gay anyways, no need to advertise.

    It would be nice to have more power strapped to my hip though. The blackberry is a neat toy, but nowhere near the tricorder that they made it out to be.

    I wonder if mobile phone giant Orange will release a similar gadget. Of course, product comparisons would be meaningless...

    Certainly 'AppleBerry' is too fruity,
    but maybe something like iDingle would be appropriate.
