Motorola iTunes Phone - No Obstacles?
Motorola Inc. Chief Executive Ed Zander said mobile phone carriers aren't balking at his company's plan to sell a phone that doubles as a music player.
"There is no resistance on anybody's part," Zander said. "I don't know where these rumors got started."
The rumors were started primarily from this Businessweek article which cited concern for competition from Wireless carriers.

(View all)And the new design concept going around is just the Moto e398 but redesigned.
I like it....its not ugly if you see it in person, but as I don't believe Apple has any control of the design, lets hope that Moto doesn't give the phone an ugly design.
Are they resistant to the Fugly designs shown so far? Lets hope its not what we've seen.
aren't these designs just renderings by random (i.e. not employed by Motorola) people of what they think the phone might look like?
Doesn't sound too out of the ordinary to me for a CEO to defend the product.
Nonetheless, if the cell companies do catch onto this, all I can really hope for is wider iTunes reach, rather then the personal technology. My iPod is working fine for me.
From the rumors floating about, it just seems like a standard Moto cell phone that has the ability to play one music format more than other music-enabled phones. No crazy Apple design, no stunning new interface. Whoop-dee-do.

I have to disagree, I believe apple does have control of the design or else they wouldn't have as much power over the release of this certain phone.
