News.com reports on comments by Gary Johnson, CEO of PortalPlayer.
PortalPlayer is the company which makes chips for the iPod as well as other hard drive based music players. According to Johnson, we are likely to see music devices that will connect directly to cameras to download photos. They are also working on direct Printer connectivity as well.
True to form, Apple would not comment and Johnson would not comment whether or not Apple will be incorporating this feature into future iPods.... but is a sign of the general direction of upcoming technology.
Belkin, of course, already makes a media reader for the current iPods which allows this basic functionality.
