This is probably old news but it has resurfaced again. If Microsoft made a portable system would you buy it? Sounds interesting. Ok now, let the portable power brick jokes begin 
Xbox chief Peter Moore told Business Week that a new Microsoft device would most likely incorporate music, video and gaming, the latter of which the iPod doesn't support. The device, then, would also butt heads with Sony's Playstation Portable and fall into a category all its own.
"I think the brand is an opportunity," Moore told Business Week.
Microsoft would not comment on the device and even if one is in development, but a representative did say, "Microsoft is committed to innovation." The software giant has shifted focus to increase its presence in entertainment fields, and an iPod/PSP competitor would fall in line with that shift.
