A new type of Apple-Beetle rumor

  • Tweet this

Applevw This week the AP reported that Steve Jobs met with the CEO of Volkswagen to kick around ideas for a possible collaboration.

Currently, of course, it's just wild speculation and no concrete plans whatsoever have been made. You know that this is the case because Apple actually let someone from the press catch wind of it.

Still, the fact that VW's head honcho is meeting with Jobs is news because the company has in the past show interest in putting PC-type devices in its cars.

Last fall at the Intel Developer Conference, VW showed off a prototype of a car with an embedded system running Windows Mobile.

Perhaps VW saw the iPhone interface and rang up Intel, who in turn called its new bff Apple and set the wheels in motion for a collaborative project that could become the "one more thing" at Macworld 2008...

Do you agree?
