Although, I think the 18 month target may be a bit aggressive. Back in September I had the pleasure of meeting with some folks at Orange<\/a> over in Paris. One of their lead engineering folks suggested a similar comment to me about Apple and after talking about my interests, he suggested that I expand some of my thoughts to be able to play along with them.<\/p>\n At the time, I thought, “Apple”??? Huh?? But, I’m beginning to see it. Although I do think it a risky venture for them and a hard space to get into, I can see the ultimate music, photo, video phone. The quintessential multimedia mobile device. They are already thinking some great thoughts here (publicly) with the new QuickTime<\/a> codecs and functionalities. Why should they be just a piece in the mobile puzzle? Why not be THE mobile multimedia solution?<\/p>\n Anita<\/p>\n PS. I love high-speed laundry mats!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So, I’ve finally had a chance to start catching up on some reading since the holiday.
