Ever since Microsoft acquired Danger, it was always rumored that Microsoft might, one day, come out with a phone based off of the Zune. What makes this rumor different than previous ones is that CNBC claims that a good Microsoft source is reporting that their newest project, named the Pink, is actually a Zune phone.
Danger, if you don’t know, was the manufacturer of the Sidekick, so they have some good experience in creating popular phones. Not much is known about this purported phone yet, but the source claims that a prototype could be ready in time for CES 2009, or the phone might be on display at the 3GSM conference. Either way, Microsoft wants to make this phone good enough so that it can attract potential iPhone buyers. Ever since the iPhone was released into the public, it has been one of the most sought after phones on the market.
It will definitely be interesting to see if Microsoft does come out to say anything about this rumor. I would like to see a Zune phone, but whether it can be good enough to be a serious threat to the iPhone remains to be seen.
