The MP3/ Phone Player Wars
CRN Daily News brings up a good point regarding MP3 players. While most people, especially iPod owners, wouldn't give up the gadget they have, there are still millions of people that don't have a device and will probably eventually choose something. These are the people that companies like Microsoft and Nokia are going after. Given that the digital music player market is dominated by iPod (75% in the US, 50% around the world), it's not going to be easy going for Microsoft and Nokia.
And then don't forget the rumour about the supposed iPod phone and some big Appple press conference in California for Sep 12. Word is, the iPod phone is actually ready for production [via O'Reilly Emerging Telephony]. Though would you pay $600 for it?
