Now, nevermind the fact that he told the same thing to Newsweek IN JANUARY … that’s right, even though people seem to really want to complain about NO 3rd party support for the iPhone, Jobs ALREADY said they would allow 3rd party Apps on the iPhone… [...] [...] Gizmodo decided to grab a front page digg this morning by posting a “rumor” about an iPhone SDK coming at WWDC, apparently, based on the fact that Steve Jobs said 3rd Party applications would be coming to the iPhone later this year.

He quotes Steve Jobs’ lame excuse for restricted application access: “These are devices that need to work, and you can’t do that if you load any software on them,” he said. “That doesn’t mean there’s not going to be software to buy that you can load on them coming from us. It doesn’t mean we have to write it all, but it means it has to be more of a controlled environment.” [...] [...] Apple Gazette theorizes that Cingular doesn’t want developers writing replacements for their for-fee services.

Since it runs a version of OSX on an ARM processor, there should be a rich set of APIs for graphics, file system IO, net applications, and UI. We know that Apple’s OSX Quartz API was recently modified to allow resolutions differing from 72dpi by introducing the notion of “scale.” Their software is ripe for 3rd party applications on the iPhone, and we know from their Yahoo / Google partnerships that non-apple software will already be running on the iPhone.

Selecting an iPhone template in DashCode would make sure that the application conforms to the Apple standards for sizing and formatting. Then send to Apple for final testing and blessing. Distribution/installation could be handled with a new Application section of iTunes...

Even though the have an SDK, your app won't be available to the general public until it's been blessed. It sucks, but that's just the world of mobile computing these days. Cingular, like T-Mobile, is afraid of what kind of software that will end up on their network. Keep in mind, it will have a full web browser that will allow anyone to develop web apps geared to the iPhone market. This is just like the Sidekick.

I had all of these cool ideas about apps for the iPhone and I wanted them to become a reality! Now, there is evidence that the iPhone will allow some sort of 3rd party apps from Jobs himself. In the article at Apple Gazette, I think one thing is very well said. The iPhone will not allow any 3rd party app by Apple standards, but will hackers find a way to install any app? You bet they will! I have to say this has made my day!  [...] [...] The one thing that was keeping me from buying an iPhone in June was the idea that I would not be able to install some sort of 3rd party software.
