| The latest rumor, generated by analyst Steve Arnold, is that
| Jobs will announce some kind of deal with Google, whose CEO Eric
| Schmidt sits on Apple's board.
| 
| Arnold, who heads Arnold-IT based in Kentucky, said he doesn't
| have any inside knowledge of an Apple/Google alliance, he's just
| connecting the dots.
| 
| He notes Google now owns YouTube and has the expertise and
| technology resources to move huge amounts of video files, a
| good match for Apple's ambitions with iTunes for both music
| and video delivery.
| 
| "Google is architected as a server company best suited for
| global delivery of bits anywhere in the world," said Arnold.
| "It could be one helluva combination; a new type of global,
| multimedia content network, worth hundreds of billions of
| dollars," Arnold told internetnews.com. He also notes Job's
| role as an executive and major stockholder at Disney couldp
| lay a role in any Apple/Google alliance.
