Could Apple be using a Motorola embedded PPC chip for the iPhone. We know that OS X already runs on PPC (duh). Moto embedded PPC chips are cooler and faster than most, and are widely used in the defense and automotive industry. Besides, Moto didn't raise a big stink when Apple switched to Intel. Make sense?
