If you are one of the folks craving a iPod Cell here is a new iPodish phone with scroll wheel to boot -- by Nokia. This should hold you over until the pPod or cPod comes out. The Nokia Neo AKA Nokia's Music Phone features include SD/MMC-Card expansion slot for its music storage, 7 MB internal memory. While the Neo does not have an onboard harddrive as rumored - there is hope that a later edition could have one with Nokia's recent announcement of plans to add harddrives to their handsets.
RANT - OK my fingers are heavy - when I use my iPod it still takes me forever to scroll to a track, I could only imagine the hell I would go through trying to scroll to 911 , Does the Neo have panic button - How cool would it be if that scroll wheel flipped up to reveal a keypad
