Steve's comments are a definately spur of the moment and ambiguous. He doesn't sit around all day figuring out how to exactly phrase things in order to drop us rumor morsels. Sure it's possible that Apple developed and then canned a nearly finished product. Yet it is more likely that they discussed a PDA, had some employees investigate the possibilities... and then got together for a meeting where they decided not to pursue the PDA market.

Don't read too much into a spur of the moment word like 'ship'. Replace it with the near synonym of 'make' and eager quote interpreters would be running in a whole different direction.

As for iPods in the car?

Alpine (which makes some of BMW's head units) has a line of products boasting iPod support with tag display and control from the head unit.
