[Year 12 SofDev] Re: [Year 12 Its] Programming for small devices

Hello all and happy new year,
Adrian Janson is at Macworld at this moment and asked me to pass on this
news.

regards Renee


Hi everyone,

Hot off the presses from Steve Jobs @ Macworld.....  Launching in june 2007
(usa)
and in 2008 in asia... The iPhone!

Yes, apple is entering the mobile phone market - but in typical apple style,
in a
completely innovative way. The iPhone combines an ipod (video) with a phone
with a
complete web browser (safari). The device is completely touch screen (no
stylus),
runs OS X, has full version apps on it - and a UI that is completely
revolutionary.
You can rotate the device from landscape to portrait (it has a motion sensor
that
detects this movement) and all functions are integrated in truly amazing
way.

This device will redefine the phone, the pda and the music player and has to
be seen
to be believed. More later....

they also launched the 'apple tv' which is a wirelessly syncing device tha
can be
used to display or play itunes content on a tv.

cheers,
Adrian - now back to the expo!
