MacDailyNews - Where Mac news comes first

He's waiting for some sort of Segway Phone. Where he doesn't need to move more than his thumb while moving around on it.

You guys are reading into nothing. No iPhone is coming!!!!!

He might mean the ZunePhone.

(Actually IS the size of a brick).

Same weight, too.

Automatic mind control. I'm holding out for that.

Apple already patented it.

Oh...the iPhone is coming alright..little doubt of that but it won't be a Blackberry killer. That's not the space it will compete in. Apple is CONSUMER electronics company with some reach into business (which is growing).

so...It's not for the harried business person that Apple is building the iPhone. It's for the people who want

1. An extra iPod (I own three and my wife wants one more)
2. An easy to use device that can surf the web, do IM's that also plays music and works with iTunes
3. A truly cool, well designed phone

Way too much reading into nothing! If Woz wasn't associated with Apple, that statement would not have recieved any attention.

Wow! Using this leap of logic we could also assume that if Woz said he is waiting on newer, better toilet tissue we should assume that Apple is going to compete with Charmin. Oh gosh, he said something so Apple must be working on it. Apple probably is working on an iPhone somewhere in their labs but this is really reading into nothing.

Actually, I'm waiting to have a chip implanted in my head.

Woz needs to go on a diet....get some excercise...

The real question is...is Woz, as co-founder, able to walk into the secret locked rooms at Apple and be one of the few trusted to not leak confidential information, whether on purpose or accidentally. I believe that is a select few, and I wonder is Woz in that group.

why is this guy still being given all the publicity lately? he's not part of apple; he hasn't been for a long while. i highly doubt steve jobs shares secrets about future products coming down apple's pipeline. he's like that washed up actor whose last real acting job was 25 years ago, but still jots down "actor" for his/her occupation.

I'm waiting on a new phone. Is that proof that an iPhone is coming?

When describing the Blackberry, Woz seemed to focus on the part they got right being the fact that it can be operated completely with the thumb. Sounds familiar. Also, he did ever so slightly have a knowing tone in his voice when he said he was waiting. Very subtle, but I think it was there.

many on this site view S.Jobs as a god and resent
Woz's significant role in the creation of Apple.

i don't think that kind of admiration from a male toward another male is 'normal" and may indicate some repressed, unresloved issues.

i'm a Jobs fan but he puts his pants on just like i do.

well sure he still gas a good few buddies at head quarters... sure he knows what cooki'n down in the loop...
But to call this a slip is a bit much...

more like a tease

C'mon MDN, that's what I'd a call a stretch.......

He obviously knows there is a better one coming out... he said he would use the blackberry, but it waiting for something better.

el Predicto:

Can't we save up and buy him a Nike + Nano? I don't want to lose him.

I currently have a Motorola "Q". The hardware is great, except for the battery life. But the software (Winblows Mobile) sucks so bad. Half the time my contacts don't show up without a restart, and you sometimes can't answer a call without a restart.

I am back now, just watched "Balmer" in a 5 minute interview on Fox news 4 oclock eastern show,

Then I had to go and take a Zune

what a bunch of bull, listening to him talk about Vista and MS in general !!

I prefer hearing Woz , anyday

I believe Woz is on the board of Danger, who make the hiptop, which is the reference design for the T-mobile Sidekick. Perhaps he is referring to something from them?

Honestly, given Apple's security, I bet Woz doesn't even know what's in the pipeline. Which is why he can talk freely...

LAME

Woz was into extracting freebies from public phones before Apple even existed.

Woz is getting publicity because he's paying someone to do exactly that. He's publicizing his new book. Nothing new about that.

He WOZ, but IZ no longer, a part of the Apple Inside.

Sad to say it, but Mike's right: "He's like that washed up actor whose last real acting job was 25 years ago, but still jots down "actor" for his/her occupation."
