Pink? The Rumour Mill


motosurf It’s funny how things go round in circles, especially in the tech world. I’ve written about “Pink” before, so I’m surprised today to see not one or two posts on other sites running with it again.

The Question is as always, what is Pink? Some have it that it’s a revived Zune phone, Others have it that it’s a new collaboration between Verizon and Microsoft to actually create an iPhone Killer, the most recent post I can find is saying Motorola is building it, I thought they were done with WinMo? The latest goes that the MotoSurf A310 from Motorola is going to be the iPhone Killer from Verizon, but hang on isn’t Verizon getting the iPhone?

This is just one of the round about, random, sorts of rumours I’ve seen evolve for a while, and to think it’s going to get bigger, and more exaggerated, will obviously happen! What is Microsoft Pink supposed to be, a hardware device produced by, who knows, to challenge the iPhone, and bring Windows Mobile to the fore front of consumer devices!

If you ask me do I have doubts? I’d say “I don’t know”

I’m ever hopeful, and not wanting to denigrate the Zune platform in any way, I just can’t see a device based on all of this speculation, emerging any time soon.

Nice post, Peter. I agree with you, all of this rumor and speculation is enough to make my head spin sometimes.
