Jim Lynch: Off the Top of My Head…

I wouldn’t mind something like this but I’d rather just be able to use an SMD card the way I do on my Pocket PC. It would be nice to play tunes on my cell phone just by slipping the SDM card into the phone.

Apple announced its intentions to bring music from its iTunes Music Store to Motorola (nyse: MOT – news – people ) mobile phones on July 26 (see: “Ringing And Singing”). Jobs appeared at Motorola’s suburban Chicago headquarters by video link at an event hosted by Motorola Chairman and CEO Edward Zander. At the event, Jobs took pains to point out that the phone would not compete with Apple’s popular iPod music player, but should viewed as an iPod accessory. “Wouldn’t it be great if you could take a dozen of your favorite songs with you” on a cell phone, Jobs said at the time.

The companies said they plan to release a phone that will connect locally to computers running Microsoft’s (nasdaq: MSFT – news – people ) Windows as well as Apple’s Macintosh computers using a cable or a Bluetooth wireless connection.
