Larger capacity would indeed be nice. Though I wouldn't expect to see such dreams come true until the iPhones third incarnation, even though there are currently 32 gig flash drives available. Wonder what they're waiting on, actually ?

I've been in the market for a new phone, amongst other things, and I think that with the release of the SDK, it's probably going to be a very strong contender for me. BBD alerted me to a point of interest though, where it was purported that the iPhone wouldn't be able to run more than one application at a time, and that no programs would run in the background.

This information seems to be mostly false, as one developer reported that there were no hardware restrictions which did this with his app, that he did manage to run in the background. It's apparently a matter of how the app is coded. There is probably however, a reason as to why certain things might be better off in a save then restore state, rather than run in the background, so we'll see.

IMO, it's all looking mighty good for Apple atm. If they try and hone in on the business world side of the game, the industry might very well change drastically. But that's going to be a very tough cookie for them to crack, as well as take away from M$. Who has the most $$ wins, I guess ?

All I know right now is, Steve Ballmer is an idiot, and a maniacal menace to all man kind..and should NOT be in the position that he is. Not to mention the sweat.. shhheesh.
