Move over iPod...

Cool new PCD from Motorola...

Nextel i880I often wonder on what the brains at Apple are working on. With the advent of the iPod video capabilities, I predicted the 'next' revolution from Apple would be the smart phone... iPod, camera, phone, all-in-one. But alas, I missed my predictions, and we didn't see it last January. Maybe this January!

But, Apple isn't in the telephone business...

The new Motorola i880 seems to be predicting a different future for PCDs. (Personal Communication Devices.)

Not just a cel phone... this iDEN (Integrated Digital Enhanced Network) Bluetooth enabled device is also a 2-megapixel camera, a Podcase enabled music player, a GPS device, and a Nextel instant coast-to-coast walkie-talkie.

But don't jump just yet.

It's still pretty pricey, $349, and requires a 2-year contract -- by which time there should be a dozen such PCDs, probably a lot better. :-)
