Gates: the end of the iPod is near

So we’ll cut to the chase: apparently our friend Bill Gates told a German
newspaper he thinks the success of the iPod isn’t much more than just a
flash in the pan. We’re not try to get all iPod apologist on you or anything
(though we can anticipate the comments), and we do agree that
convergence is the wave of the future, but what we found best about this
was when it went from a simple statement of opinion to a bigger PR
slip: “If you were to ask me which mobile device will take top place for
listening to music, I’d bet on the mobile phone for sure.” Uh, did anyone
clue him in on the forthcoming Motorola/Apple iTunes phones? No?
