Woz and Jobs: iPhone Reunites Dynamic Duo
By Remy Davison, Insanely Great Mac
August 29th 2002

Collaboration on next-generation smart phone may be impetus behind possible Apple-wOZ 
joint venture.

If Wireless Week/A> is to be believed, Apple Computer Inc. is about to come full 
circle: its two founders may be reunited. This time, the iPhone PDA/cell phone may be 
the conduit to do just that.

The article says that Steve Wozniak''s new firm, Wheels of Zeus (wOZ) may collaborate 
wiith Jobs and Apple on the much-rumored ''iPhone'', said to combine the attributes of 
both PDA and smart phone. 

wOZ is working on satellite tracking technology which could conceivably equip 
next-generation cell phones with "location-based features", including, possibly, the 
ability to find other people in, say, a shopping mall.

Analysis: There''s not a lot here beyond speculation that Apple could use something 
Woz and wOZ come up with. If it happens that wOZ does have technology that Apple 
wants, it''s possible that Jobs might have first right of refusal, given that they''re 
cashed up, and we''re sure Woz would want to see this on the Apple/Mac platform first 
(and last).

On the other hand, Woz did all the tech stuff in the old days, and Steve marketed it. 
Plus �a change...
