Just after posting an official statement from Jobs was posted.
Third Party Applications on the iPhoneLet me just say it: We want native third party applications on the iPhone, and we plan to have an SDK in developers’ hands in February. We are excited about creating a vibrant third party developer community around the iPhone and enabling hundreds of new applications for our users. With our revolutionary multi-touch interface, powerful hardware and advanced software architecture, we believe we have created the best…
Looks like Apple is indeed planning an open SDK for release in February.
The company just announced on its Hot News feed (and we’d say this certainly qualifies as such), that it is currently at work on an SDK for the iPhone, the apps from which will naturally work on the iPod touch. Apparently it’s going to take ‘em until February to do it up right — you know, secure and stable and all that nonsense — but this is certainly a…
It looks like Apple dropped the video out functionality for the iPhone. Last week the iPhone was clearly marked as a supported device for both the component and composite cables, now neither cables have the iPhone logo and the descriptions look to have been edited.
This is just another thorn in Apple’s side with new cable backlash the “community” is expressing across the blogosphere. The issue is the switch to requires these “special” cables for all new iPods, the old cables aren’t compatible.…
I just got a call from Joswiak who wanted to make clear: “not hate” doesn’t mean “like” or “support.” I think I made that clear further down, but they said that some people may not be reading all the way down this piece. So to summarize: Apple will neither forbid nor support native code on the iPhone/Touch. They will not design software updates specifically to break native apps, but if the updates happen to break native apps or your native…
$.99 more just to make an already purchased iTunes song a ringtone, gimme a break. I rather just use some mod/hack software to enable it. [Link] (0)
For some reason or another I could not find good documentation on installing Subversion and Trac on fc6 while also using Apache so I’ve simply just documented what I’ve learned and just implemented on my own system.
This tutorial is about the installation of a development enviroment on FC6 it’s not a how-to for using it. If you need to know more I recommend reading Version Control with Subversion (I just ordered it).
Requirements
You need to install these packages before we start…
iWork 08
Yesterday I posted about Numbers and I shyed away from posting about the other two apps in iWork ‘08; Pages and Keynote because the only thing out of those two apps that’s worth mentioning is “action builds” for Keynote.
Action builds is a very cool feature and to have it in a presentation software makes me say “finally”. Keynote has had animations in previous versions but not like this. Instead of building the motion in another application like Flash or…
This has got to be the best review/article on the age old debate of Linux vs. Mac. The article is extensive but the conclusions on the topic mimic my sentiments exactly.
In the following pages, they lead a guided tour of the two OSes, paying particular attention to eight important areas: Installation & Migration; Hardware Support & Power Management; Networking, Web & Wireless; Productivity; Entertainment; Security; Working With Windows (because we couldn’t completely ignore Microsoft); and Stability, Backup & Disaster Recovery.
Which is the…
Once again I’m fixing someone’s computer because they’re too incompetent to realize that they’re destroying their computer with the software they choose to install and the disabling of anti-virus and spyware software I installed months prior. And I absolutly can’t believe there are programs that are allowed to be installed on windows that completely trash the underlying system. In this case (I’ve seen this at least 4x before) no browser will pull up a site but pinging domains work in…
Well the wait is over for me. I talked myself into buying an iPod last night after toying around with it for just a few minutes and my experience with it for 20 minutes today at the mall solidified my decision.
 Yes, the iPhone does do what many other phones do already. That’s clear but it’s the how that counts. The simplicity may be a drawback for some (or at least one I know) but like the BlackBerry OS it’s almost…
