Apple + VW = iCar?

http://www.newsfactor.com/news/Is-th...d=132007N6L3SO

Fresh from a series of conquests, Apple might now be planning to colonize automobiles. According to German financial magazine Capital, Apple CEO Steve Jobs has met with Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn to talk about a car that would showcase Apple's technology and products.

Hans-Gerd Bode, a spokesperson for Volkswagen, said that the meeting took place in California and that lots of ideas were discussed, but noted that the project is still in the early stages. Apple has declined comment, but observers are already calling the new project the iCar.

Evidently the "typical" customer demographics for Apple are the same as for VW...
