Let the speculation begin! Again Apple in in the center of media attention and this time is not about Mac World Expo or the new Apple-Intel relationship. This time is something bigger.
During last year, Motorola teamed up with Apple and the result was Motorola ROKR,the first iTunes compatible phone, whichs was considered by media and analysts a failure. This year at CES 2006, Motorola has launched Motorola ROKR E2, but this new model has nothing to do with Apple and iTunes.
But at the begining of this year, on January 5, Apple made a filing with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to trademark the phrase "Mobile Me" for use in a wide range of businesses. This move was just the start for speculation that Apple could introduce an iPod phone.
The areas that the trademark covers include computing devices, mobile devices, and mobile services including digital music, video, games, e-mail, and messaging across Internet, intranets, extranets, television, cellular, and satellite networks, the filing shows. In one application, Apples "Mobile Me" would apply to "mobile telephone communications services" and "telecommunication services for the dissemination of information by mobile telephone, namely the transmission of data to mobile telephones."
As you can see, for the moment is still unclear if Apple want to develop some kind of services for mobile phones or will launch a hybrid between a cell phone and iPod. In the mobile phones market, the leader is Nokia, followed by Motorola and Samsung.
