More iPod phone speculation

Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer has said the iPod is the best music player and Apple is not idle on phones, fuelling speculation about an iPod phone with Softbank.

Some more speculation this week as to possibility of an iPod mobile phone sometime soon. That speculation was caused by this remark by Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer as he launched those previously reported financial figures: "As regards cell phones, we do not think that the phones that are available today make the best music players. We think the iPod is. But over time, that is likely to change, and we are not sitting around doing nothing." Insiders point to a collaboration between Apple and Tokyo based phone firm Softbank as a possible development ground for an iPod phone.
