Thumbs up for Android and the G1
,----[ Quote ]
| I have seen the future and it is Android-shaped.
|
| As much as I have lusted after an iPhone (my current plan would have been too
| expensive to dump) and longed to leave the clutches of T-Mobile (see my
| previous columns), having had the Android-based T-Mobile G1 in my sweaty
| hands for a couple of weeks has changed my mind about both staying with
| T-Mobile and wanting an iPhone.

It may soon be possible to put OpenMoko platforms on second-hand (discarded)
iPhones.

Linux finally loaded onto iPhone!
,----[ Quote ]
| Linux fans who have been waiting for Linux to come the iPhone and iPod Touch
| need wait no longer – the breakthrough has finally been made, years after
| Linux found its way onto earlier iPod models. There’s a way to go before the
| project is mature, with plenty of things, including touchscreen support, yet
| to come. Still - Linux on the iPhone is here, at last!

First steps for Linux on iPhone
,----[ Quote ]
| The Linux on the iPhone project has released the first results of its work.
| The current port of Linux includes a bootloader, OpeniBoot, which allows the
| user to select booting either the iPhone OS or the Linux port. This first
| port is very limited though, as the demonstration video that has been
| released shows, there is no touchscreen support for interacting with the
| device; instead a USB console is used to type commands.

The iPhone Is Now Doomed
,----[ Quote ]
| I cannot claim to be a developer, but I have been watching the whole iPhone
| application development issues with interest. As of today’s news, it appears
| that the iPhone development process is like this:
|
| 1. Ask Apple for permission to make an application.
| 2. Sign a non-disclosure agreement.
| 3. Invest time and money into an iPhone application.
| 4. Ask Apple for permission to sell or give away your application.
| 5. If Apple says YES: start making money and hope Apple does not change
| their minds.
| If Apple says NO: shut up and deal with it. If you say anything, Apple
| can sue you, further raising the wasted investment money.
