...Bruner calls it a "storage element" rather than a drive; it holds about 2 GB of information, enough for 600 songs or 1,200 at sub-CD quality, on a disc that is a quarter of the size of an iPod's. Samsung started deploying it in a phone in Korea in Septem-ber. That's why Bruner insists that the days of the iPod, and any other music-only device, are numbered. "I believe strongly that Apple's market will fade away over-night when you see the first cost-effective music-playing phone,'' says Bruner...
