John Lamansky, the “WordPress Expert” has noticed a little snippet of text from WordPress developer Matt Mullenweg that implies we may see WordPress in the next iPhone. The quote John used:
Mobile is really important. Blackberries, iPhones… and other things… are coming. And I’d like that to be in a core cell phone. They were hoping to do it in time for WordCamp and announce it here, but there is a device maker who is working on actually building WordPress into the device, so it’ll come bundled with it — which will be pretty interesting. I can’t say who it is yet, but there’s only a few out there so you can probably guess.
It sure sounds like the iPhone, doesn’t it? As John said, even if it’s not bundled with the 2.0 firmware, it’s quite likely we’ll see a third party app that handles it.
We’ll find out soon – probably around June 9.

Could be. I’d bet more on Nokia, though.
