  1. SDK was ready long ago, while people here were whining about the 6 days delay, and the fact we would only get a SDK roadmap today. Well guess what? Jobs is surprising folks by pulling out more trick off his hat. Not only SDK is ready, has been ready, but lots of applications too… and let’s be sure, it also works for iPod Touch. In the next few months, Steve will drop the iTablet and the game will be over for any competition.

  2. This is big like rockets, like chemistry, like plastics. This is big like cars, like electricity, like fire… okay not as big as fire… but seriously, can you imagine anyone in 5 years not having one of these or their by then hopefully numerous descendants? Not me. This is huge… And this event is shaping up to be exactly what it needed to be!

  3. Current non-Mac owners who have an iPhone are going to shit over all this new functionality! They are used to being treated like a POS by Microsucks and will be falling all over themselves to praise the iPhone and His Holiness.

  4. I am putting this day into my Calendar as day 1 of the iPhone & iPod touch changing the game in a MAJOR way.

    Wow. I mean, WOW! Look at how easy, and absolutely AMAZING the apps are to create and use!

    This a a very important day for Apple. For all the right reasons.

    Rock on 

  5. “waiting until June for v2.0 is sucky. that’s 4 months, because as everyone knows when Apple says June, they mean June 29 or 30”

    Perhaps he meant June 2009? ” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”wink” style=”border:0;” />

  6. I’m just hoping Apple has ramped up the facilities in China early enough, so that they can churn out those 12 million phones before this Christmas… It’s obvious that RIM should be very worried. This thing is going to kill its growth very fast!

    We need to hear one more thing, and hear it clearly: native push client for Lotus Notes. It may not have as many seats as the Exchange, but it is a close second. Very large organisations would quickly jump on this if it existed.

  7. I can hear the Microsoft shill blogging now:

    “About the iPhone SDK introducted today by Apple.

    WHAT, NO ANTI-Gravity. NOTHING to see here. Move along.

    Major flop!!! I cannot download it in Alaska so thats a deal killer for me. And it will not work on my Windows Mobile phone. Apple is DOOMED I tell you. Sell your stock now. “

  8. I work for a Canadian cell phone company on CDMA. Although we don’t have the iPhone here yet, we’re screwed when we do. This is a huge bomb. Licensing ActiveSync…RIM should be shaking. Everyone else, well, they’re already toast. I have been reserved about the iPhone due to corporate but this answers everything they needed to do. And is why Apple rocks and I will never sell my shares.

  9. I truly hope Apple won’t stop VOIP. They did their best to sidestep the issue:

    “They want push contacts, global address list, Cisco IPsec VPN, they want authentication and certs, enterprise class WiFi (WPA2 / 802.1x), security policies, enterprise configuration tools, and they want remote wipe.”

    Damn! I guess nobody wants free calls via iChat/VOIP?
