And it looks like the 6G iPod will be speech capable.
Pure speculation at this point, but I wish and hope it to be true. I also wish and hope there really is a Santa Claus.
Here's one of several articles out there: http://news.scotsman.com/scitech.cfm?id=999772006
I have read several references to the above article, but no other novel reporting on the topic. Can you name one or two? This is so called news was first reported over two months old. http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20060504-6753.html The patent in question is from November 2004. http://www.macsimumnews.com/index.php/archive/apple_files_patent_for_an_audio_interface_for_the_ipod/ We even extensively discussed this very patent, and the possibilities, on this very list. http://www.macvisionaries.com/pipermail/discuss_macvisionaries.com/2006-May/013242.html My conclusion, then as now, based on no evidence merely cynicism, is that this is only about the stupid running shoes, and nothing to get excited about. http://www.apple.com/ipod/nike/ -- Top posting just adds to the noise.
