: 78 th | | | you can reg 100 phones, they can then all share apps via email. if youre working in a development environment. or official 3rd party apps can simply be downloaded via cell connection as long as they're < 10mb |

| | | I think the iPod Touch gets screwed because of the SEC and Apple's past accounting issues...the iPhone, being on a subscription service, accounting wise the cost of upgrades are rolled into that, which doesn't exist for the Touch (stupid and somewhat unfair, I know, but that's the only explanation I've seen).

| | | I have to agree with Coffee though, IT Staffers would really dislike having iTunes installed on machines... |

| | If any of you have ever used the iPhone SDK, it truly is amazing. XCode is already my favorite IDE. The iPhone SDK is basically just like it, but it also comes with a complete iPhone simulator where you can actually test the apps you write and they'll behave exactly like they would on a real iPhone. I've already been writing some various software for the hell of it. It's so easy and awesome.

| | | i didn't. not that mobileme is anywhere near the platform Mesh is, but it certainly is cool for a mobile application, where Mesh is more of a desktop platform. Guess we won't hear any of the "Redmond start your copiers" this time around?
