A 12-song iPod with a mobile phone attached

Huh?

Still struggling to find relevance, Motorola announces that it’s teaming up with Apple to include some kind of version of iTunes in a new line of mobile phones.

[Steve] Jobs also said that Mac or Windows PC users will be able to transfer songs from the iTunes digital jukebox software or from the iTunes online music store, which is integrated into the iTunes software, to Motorola cell phones.

The Reuters article is a bit confusing and vague here. Do they mean the iTunes music store is integrated into the iTunes software on the phone? If so, will people stand the wait to download a few megs of data over slow-as-plate-tectonics GPRS, or faster-on-paper-but-not-really 1xRTT?

If they mean they’re simply letting people transfer purchased songs from their computers to their phones, does this mean Apple has finally licensed its DRM software to someone else? Does this mean QuickTime for Java is running on these phones?

If they could squeeze a mobile phone plus an iPod into the size of an iPod mini, now that would be something worth considering. But this? What is this? What’s the point, Moto?
