Apple's iPhone Not Likely Soon?
ThinkSecret reports that Apple's cell phone project has been placed on hold due to "significant technical hurdles" in developing the product.
According to the rumor site, Apple had wanted to develop the cell phone "from the ground up" rather than improving on existing designs. The process, however, was met with technical problems in interfacing the various cell components.
ThinkSecret predicts that the Apple cell phone will not likely come until at least 2007, if not later. This is in the face of numerous predictions by analysts that an Apple iPhone is expected in the next 12 months.

I'd rather have them late to the party and have it done up right than throw some crap out there in a hurry.

Yeah. No more ROKRs, please.
The first Apple phone needs to blow everybody else away.

I think Apple will probably NOT introduce an iPhone... but I don't really trust ThinkSecret either way...

I just don't see any reason Apple needs to produce a phone. How does this sell more iMacs or Computers. Can anyone think of a reason?

THE ROKR WAS NOT BY APPLE !!! ITUNES WAS !
having that said.. I didn't expect a Apple Phone any time soon...
I do however hope to see a Blackberry killer announced for the pro market by apple as I posted before.. RIM is in trouble.. (even though they settled), Palm is taking advantage right now.. and Apple could jump in..
Besides all that I could buy the motivation of this story but let's not forget that none of the things ThinkSecret predicted past year have come true.. Almost like Apple is pulling the strings upthere.. or maybe it's just stock manipulation..
