That’s the rumour of the day, folks. Microsoft is readying a Zune phone to take on the media-hogging iPhone.

In a hush-hush, wink-wink, tap your nose scenario, the good people at Crunchgear have received some Deep Throat information that claims Microsoft will bring out a Zune phone. The site classifies the tip as a ‘sound tip’ but hedges its bets by claiming it is just an unconfirmed tip at the end of the day. So far, this is what’s predicted:

It will be smartphone that will not run Windows Mobile but have an interface similar to Zune.

It will ship in time for Christmas [highly optimistic]

There are far too many ‘ifs’ and ‘buts’ and ‘maybes’ here but it does seem logical that Microsoft would like some of that yummy, high-margin iPhone business. Your thoughts?-Martin Lynch
