Fastest Moving Rumor of Today: iTunes for Windows Mobile 5.0

Sep 28 2005, 8:22am EST | by Luigi Lugmayr

Driven mostly by wishful thinking a story on a German blog about a first person encounter of a iTunes client running on Windows Mobile 5.0 is spreading very fast today.

Schrankmonster.de (Translated: Closet Monster) has published several photos showing a T-Mobile MDA running a iTunes client that looks very much like a desktop version. One of the aspects that says those shots are fake. The photos are really well faked if they are fake.
A presentation of T-Mobile at the IFA 2005 feeds the believers that this could be true. T-Mobile mentioned a iTunes compatible phone, which just might not be from Motorola then.

The release of an iTunes client for Windows Mobile would sure push Windows based smartphones considerably. Additionally it would but the ROKR potentially into a lonely corner. More coverage on Engadget, PhoneyWorld, Netzwelt (German), MacWorld and msmobiles.
