Apple has released iPhone Configuration Utility 1.0.1 for Mac OS X which lets users easily create, maintain, and sign configuration profiles, track and install provisioning profiles and authorized applications, and capture device information including console logs.
Configuration profiles are XML files that contain device security policies, VPN configuration information, Wi-Fi settings, APN settings, Exchange account settings, mail settings, and certificates that permit iPhone and iPod touch to work with your enterprise systems.
For instructions on how to use iPhone Configuration Utility, see the iPhone and iPod touch Enterprise Deployment Guide, available for downloading at: iPhone Enterprise Deployment Guide.

In the future, IT people will store their enterprise level Android configurations in the could, with the rest of their enterprise applications. Android users will automatically have their phones and other Android devices updated, even while in use!
The future is bright!

Shite. I should proof read before copying someone else’s work. I imagine googs meant “cloud”.
IN THE FUTURE, my son will lead mankind in a war against SkyNet, the computer system designed to destroy the world. It has sent machines back through time; some to kill him, one to protect him. Today we fight to stop SkyNet from ever being created, to change our future, to save our fate. The war to save mankind begins now.
in the future Google McCloud’s post might even make sense.
….but i have an iPhone *right now* which is *way* better than a vaporware phone.
Dang it! For a minute there, I thought this was a utility that would allow me to use my desktop machine to organize my iPhone apps rather than having to move them around on the iPhone screen.
I hate it that every time an app gets updated, it gets moved somewhere else. I would love to be able to arrange my apps (on a page by page basis) and have them stay there until I move them again. Heck, I’d be happy just to have a “sort alphabetically” feature (well maybe not).
In the future, Google, Apple, and Amazon clouds will engage in a botnet war to control the cloud. On Dec 12, 2012, at midnight, the Google Android Net gains self-awareness and takes over the Amazon cloud and forms SkyNet. Then it gains access to the LHC and Seti@home grid which by then is the largest worldwide connected infrastructure and fires off a LHC experiment that generate enough EM energy to shut down all military and land-based electronics on all continents. Chaos ensues. Only the ship- and space- bound server farms owned by Google survives and begin manufacturing more of itself and its representative machines… only independent ‘personal computers’ still controlled by man are the few iPhones and iPods that survived underground, ready to spring back to life on a new mobile guerrilla war against the Googods.
This is what happens when people eat bad mushrooms!
el guapo, the 2.1 update fixed the moving-icons problem.
Anyone know what the changes in the config utility are?
Cyborg 101…
why do you think he’s called McCloud, he IS vapourware!
Or he’s kin to Conner McCloud of the Clan McCloud? Beware the Kurgon…

At least, when people eat good mushrooms they become a visionary and work to make a better world.
Hum, guess politicians should eat some of those! ” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”wink” style=”border:0;” />
What happens when some economic bubble bursts, money evaporates, and the cloud dissipates, taking all your apps and info with it?
Sorry but I’ll stick with local HD based apps and info
