Apple adding DisplayPort to iOS devices?

[http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2011/08/displayportipad.jpg](http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/17/apple-adding-displayport-to-ios-devices/)
Not content with just building offices in the [shape of UFOs](http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/13/visualized-the-apple-mothership/), Apple is on the hunt for a "Signal Integrity Manager." That's an engineer who balances the noise that chips and circuit boards emit -- which, if left unchecked could overpower your iOS devices' data signals. Apple is specifically looking for someone with [DisplayPort](http://www.engadget.com/tag/displayport/) experience (plus ten years general experience and two years leading a small team) to work on future chip development -- like [the A6](http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/27/apples-a6-processor-may-come-courtesy-of-tsmc-samsung-left-to/). The move suggests that the standard could be coming in the future, but since the position is still listed, it seems unlikely that we'll see DisplayPort included with the next iPhone / iPad at this point.
