iPhone : closed ?

Quote:

Original post by serg3d Rumors have it that iPhone will not be open to third party developers. What a pity. Looks like a perfect gaming platform. Hope I wrong. Anyone have any information about it ?

Considering how closed the IPod video development is I'm going to say it'll definatly be closed. I know people working on an I-Pod game and they don't even get a dev kit or libs really. They have to send their source to apple, who builds it, tests it, then tells you what happened. So for ipod even an official developer never see's the device ... its crazy :P

If apple is like that with the i-pod no reason they won't be like it with their iphone.

Looks like it will be closed. (link from the Lounge iPhone thread).

shmoove

Ok. So the only hope Steve Ballmer will throw enough chairs to produce similar Win Mobile clone...
