Thank Jawd (Jobs+God=Jawd...tell your friends)

I for one am really excited about the AIM app. And I hope that in the next update they add different home menu buttons (the 4 where Phone, Mail, Safari, and iPod are) for each section.

IE: Those 4 on page one, iTunes Store, AIM, Photos, Camera on page 2.
 
Not Availible Until June.

"Exclusive way to distribute iPhone applications"

Developers get 70% revenue and Apple gets 30. That's outrageous. Plus, thats revenue not profits.


At least they came up with this totally original idea for an application on the iphone that lets you install other applications and check for updates... wait a sec.....

It's not outrageous in the least. Apple markets, and distributes your apps to thousands of iPhone users via iTunes. You can't get that kind of penetration for free.
 
All of this is coming in the iPhone 2.0 update. It’ll have the SDK and enterprise capabilities. There’s a Beta release going out today. Thousands of developers will have it today. Apple needs the feedback. Customers will see this in June as a free software update.

Hmmm... 30% is a tad high.....

I wonder what potential developers think about this.

Nice about the free apps tho.
