Apple and EFF argue over iPhone jailbreaking
,----[ Quote ]
| The Electronic Frontier Foundation has filed requests with the US Copyright
| Office to exempt activities from legal threats under the DMCA, one of which
| attacks Apple’s secured software business model on the iPhone.

| Community · I’ve previously written that one of the nicest things about
| Android is the community, as evidenced by my continued success in simple Web
| searches turning up working-code solutions to my programming problems. ¶

| But the central Android Developers list over on Google groups, well, it’s not
| that great. There are a few insiders who try hard and do good work, but
| there’s a high volume of truly clueless questions that could have been
| answered by eight seconds’ recourse to that little search window in the top
| right corner of every bloody application you use.

| Why Not iPhone? · Clearly, at this time, the iPhone hardware and software are

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.

iPhone to become openPhone ?

| Moving to an open source platform like Linux however would increase the pool
| of available developers, and serve to drive down these costs, which hopefully
| will lead to better lower priced third party applications.

Google Exec: Android To Beat iPhone
,----[ Quote ]
| Rich Miner even went after Apple's handheld darling. "Once you have devices
| out there from Motorola, HTC, Samsung, and so on, there's a much larger
| potential market on Android than for the iPhone," he said. "[T]here's a
| single manufacturer, it's targeted at a particular demographic, and it falls
| far short of the 1 billion mobile phones sold every year worldwide."
