So we've all heard about the new iPhone SDK and just how cool it is. I got to admit, it is kind of cool. Its like having a legit installer.app that apple gives you. Some of the apps might even be FREE! However, Apple dropped the bomb with their limitations on the SDK. The following cannot be done by 3rd party iPhone apps:
-Apps cannot run in the background (say bye bye to AIM)
-Apps cannot launch other apps, or anything else
-No emulators (from what I heard its not emulators which are explicitly banned but they way they are run is not allowed)
Lets wait and see what other bombs Apple drops on their SDK. (its kind of sad, the SDK looked so cool up until this)
