"it looks like Microsoft could be trying to give Ipod a run for their money"-asylum boy
i wouldn't worry about ipod. there strickly about music. ide be looking at nintedo or playstation for there portable devices.
if you look at nintendo, the amazment of how quick two portable systems came out, from the DS to that micro thing, nintendo is usually on top of there portable systems. but i dont think playstation or nintendo have a plane for a new system in the portable catagory planes yet, if all follows well, from what i saw, its not just a video game system, its like a PDA.
If this xbox in a pocket comes out i think that nintendo will have to step it up a notch,
