Mix: Mobile Me, Windows Media, iPod add-ons, iPod kids

News

Apple has filed a U.S. trademark for the term “Mobile Me,” sparking further speculation of an “iPhone” or other mobile products and services.

Microsoft has officially ended development of Windows Media Player for Mac OS X and plans no future versions of the music-playing software for the Apple OS.

Ina Fried of CNET News.com has a general two-page article on the iPod accessory market.

Leander Kahney’s four children were on hand at this week’s Macworld Expo dressed as iPods to promote his “Cult of iPod” book.

It’s very obvious now that apple made that trademark!
They are just experiancing now and letting motorola take the hit.

‘Mobile Me’. All this tag reminds me of is Windoze, and NOT in a very good way at all. Windows Mobile coupled with Windows Me…(involuntary shudder).

I don’t know. “Mobile me” sounds kind of like a command rather than a statement. “Mobile me!” *is handed an iPhone*
