iTunes for Windows Mobile?
You no longer have to hack, slash, rip, reburn, or unmux (mostly) if what we're seeing here is true. These are purported screenshots from a Windows Mobile (version 5) device and there's a native version of iTunes apparently running. The schrankmonster blog has the eye candy.While this doesn't surprise me in the least, it is a fascinating sign of the times. Would Microsoft, a company whose envy of the iPod's success is much ballyhooed, allow such a thing? If there's money to be made on either end, sure. The question is how much money and for how long, right? Obviously if Microsoft promised an iPod killer, doesn't seem like they'd want to replace their venerable (and mighty cool) Windows Media Player for the mobile space...

That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...

Over at the Engadget Thread they've pretty much disproved the photo. It was just a clever photoshoped picture that someone took a screenshot of iTunes (windows) and then added the blue bar at the top. Then they looked at it on their PDA through the picture viewer and took a picture with their camera. Go there for the complete story.

What's to allow? I don't think there is anything MS can do if Apple (or any other developer) decides to make this (or any other) piece of software.
