Just consider this possibility I was thinking about yesterday. The 'iWalk' seems to be quite a big (I mean size) thing in today's PDA world. If the purpose was to provide big screen, huge battery and internal HD - I guess it is or will be able to play movies. Considering Apple's efforts to contribute to MPEG-4 story, the device maybe will be able to play such movies! If so, Apple will release some kind of DVD ripper (with "don't steal movies" sticker on it;) - and, they call it something after iTunes, like eer... iCinema? So we would have iCinema (DVD ripper, ripping to MPEG-4/QT movies) and iPod for video (iWalk). Of course iWalk would be more than this - PDA. How do you like the idea?
