The bad news regarding iPhone starts to roll in...

From TUAW:
The lucky Gizmodo guys got their paws on an actual iPhone plus an hour of Q&A with some Apple VPs. Here are some of their scoops: The OS isn't going to be "OS X for real." It's more like a pseudo-OS X and, like the iPod, it will not have a public API and open development. This confirms what Dan posted earlier today about no user-installable apps. Which is a shame. I'd really love to see the iPod and iPhone get opened up for more third party software. The screen is the same polycarbonite material as the iPod overlaid with a touch element. Finally, there won't be any WiFi or cellular data syncing, only sync-via-docking.

No SDK, not a smartphone. Just a high end feature phone. At least that's what I read. :) Posted by: polamex at January 11, 2007 7:49 PM |

Wow, this live presentation about it from CBS is sweet. I watched the quicktime demos on the iphone site, but its so much cooler IRL. I would call it a UI masterpiece. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgW7or1TuFk Posted by: polamex at January 11, 2007 9:18 PM |
