Apple + SoftBank = iPhone?

Thanks to Martin to have sent us the article on the front page of Japan times, describing the rumor about Apple and SoftBank around a putative iPhone project (Sunday 14th issue). From this article it might be possible to define if it is a true iPhone project, or rather a new Motorola-like mostly centered around " iTunes Mobile".

Indeed, the estimated release of this device (next year) argues in favor of a real iPhone project (implementing "iTunes Mobile" in a mobile phone would not required more than couple of month to be up and running)
