AppleInsider Exclusive:
Speaking from the Wall Street Journal's D: All Things Digital conference this afternoon in Carlsbad, Apple CEO Steve Jobs made a number of interesting statements. Most notably, Jobs confirmed that Apple had designed its own PDA device, but canned the project just prior to bringing it to market.

Talk about wasting money...

I mean when it was (almost) ready to be released they dumped it?
No wonder they have to be pricey with their Macs...

Maybe 4G iPod's (or vPod's) will be a HD-based PDA?.. Who knows?..

Wow. I can't get over Apple's designs. Just amazing. I'm seriously considering selling my PC and laptop and buying an iMac and iBook. But not yet.

Good choice! I've had my iBook for 3 years and its still going strong. The new G4 ones are just great though...

I just bought a 1.25Ghz eMac as my current budget didn't allow anything meatier, but its great too! Well worth the money (£640 with 512mb RAM and 80gb HD)
