“Over the course of two public presentations—first, its iPhone Software Roadmap Event on March 6, 2008, and second, the Worldwide Developers Conference on June 9, 2008—Apple has spotlighted a number of different applications for the iPhone, iPhone 3G, and iPod touch,” Jeremy Horwitz writes for iLounge. “Though these applications vary considerably in purpose and likelihood of general release, we’ve assembled a complete list of what was shown for curious readers and developers to consider.”
• AOL Instant Messenger for iPhone
• Apple App Store
• Apple’s Hello World
• Apple’s Photo Editor
• Apple’s Touch FX
• Apple’s Touch Fighter
• Electronic Arts’ Spore
• Epocrates Drug Reference Application
• Salesforce.com Salesforce Automation (SFA) Application
• Sega’s Super Monkey Ball
“In the Xcode portion of the Scott Forstall demonstration of iPhone application development, a collection of iPhone games was shown in an opened folder alongside separate collections of Productivity Apps and Utilities, which were closed. The titles listed were: AsteroidFighter2, BlockBreaker, CasinoMegaFunPack, ClassicArcadeGames, HangmanPlus, MagicRealm, MyGame, SpeedRun3000, and WolfHunter,” Horwitz reports.
Horwitz also covers additional applications shown during Steve Jobs App Store demonstration on March 6, 2008 and, of course, the WWDC apps shown, with screenshots, in his full article here.
The wonky names of some of the apps just reminded me of the release list for some of that Atari Jaguar games… hope it’s just a memory.
Not to rag on Apple too much, but c’mon, we really need copy and paste, sync notes, sync to do.

<u>MobileMe</u>
“You might have a Mac at home, a PC at work, and an iPhone or iPod touch. The challenge is keeping multiple devices always in sync. Enterprises can use a server like Exchange. For everyone else, now there’s MobileMe.
MobileMe works with the applications you know well. Microsoft Outlook on a PC. Mail, Address Book, and iCal on a Mac. And Mail, Contacts, and Calendar on your iPhone or iPod touch.
Access and manage your email, contacts, calendar, photos, and files at me.com. All with amazing applications that are so feature-rich and easy to use, you may end up preferring them to your regular desktop applications.”

Not to rag on Apple too much, but c’mon, we really need Windows Mobile & Zune Marketplace support.
Tour potential. Our passion.™
And yes, I meant to say ‘Tour potential’.
Your potential. Our passion.™
I was most impressed by MIMvista medical imaging which looked like they made the most innovative use of the MultiTouch™ screen on the iPhone.
Zune Tang®, tour the man!
