Creative competes in the DAP market.
I simply can not see them letting Msoft APPLE, I MEANT APPLE use they're flagship consumer soundcard chip in a DAP.

Note readers, ignoring the fact rumours do not originate from Apple, it is always better if they are at least credible or so fantastical, it'll never happen but we can dream. The No2 competitor to Apple are not about to quit anytime soon

I think creative is supposed to be using their x-fi technology in an upcoming DAP of their own, so I don't see apple getting it for the ipod unless they are paying creative tons of money.
I think we will see flash memory(16gb, maybe 32gb if they take their time) make it into the full sized ipods in the 6g, but a slightly thicker, hard drive based, high capacity version as well. A lot of people think it will be similar to the iphone, new gui(maybe like apple's frontrow for the macs), and if we are lucky some type of wireless will make it's way in there(wifi, bluetooth). If it is touchscreen and iphone-like I have doubts that we will see it before the iphone is available, but then again what do I know?

I love how I made a post trying to sound knowledgeable and then ended up sounding like a jackass.

Would anyone want an x-fi chip in their media player? it gets knocked enough as a sound card.

lol.... as much as people think that Apple would never touch a Creative product to use with their ipod... If that really were the case then why did Apple have to pay Creative for wrongfully using their software?

That was about using a control scheme patented by Creative. Entirely different to actually using Creative produced components

And that said more about the ridiculous nature of the US patent office in recent times more than anything. The claim itself was iffy. The control scheme was generic and used before Creative "patented" it
