Developers signing on to the iPhone SDK program are now expressly forbidden from writing iPhone apps that can be installed via jailbreak, or any software for any Apple technology that messes with security or DRM. More »Apple Rejects CastCatcher 1.3 App for "Transferring Excessive Volumes of Data"
I think Apple's rejection of the latest update to CastCatcher—an internet radio app—is the first we've seen because it "transfer[s] excessive volumes of data over the cellular network." Interestingly, the current version, 1.2, is still in the store, and return7's co-founder, Amro Mousa, told us that CastCatcher 1.3 doesn't "use more bandwidth than prior versions (or any other streaming app)."

iPhone SDK Beta 7 Out Now
A day after the announcement of the iPhone 3G (have you heard of this thing?), Apple has released iPhone SDK Beta 7. Macworld says it's mostly stability and bug fixes, but they expect the 2.0 Software and final version SDK to release at the same time. [MacWorld]iPhone SDK Beta 6 Now Available, OS X 10.5.3 Needed
iPhone's sixth SDK has just been released, adding support for the latest iPhone OS and fixing various bugs. You'll have to update to Leopard 10.5.3, which was released earlier today. That's right, you HAVE TO. Not sure why, but that's what Apple's saying. [Apple]iPhone SDK Beta 5 Now Up: Bug Fixes, Updated OS Support
Besides supporting the latest iPhone OS version, beta 5 doesn't do a whole lot else besides throwing in small tweaks to the UI, tweaks to the developers tools and some bug fixes. No big feature addition like last time, but you gotta update if you're making iPhone apps. You just gotta! There probably won't be very many more of these before the next iPhone's out.

iPhone SDK Beta 4 Now Available, Comes with OpenGL ES 3D Graphics Support
The latest iPhone SDK is now available, and unlike last time, it actually comes with an awesome new feature: OpenGL ES support! Now the iPhone simulator can render OpenGL ES that "mirror behavior on the iPhone and iPod Touch." The ES in OpenGL ES stands for embedded systems, and is the official graphics API in both Symbian and Android as well. As a side note, Open GL ES 2.0 is also supported by the PS3 as "an official graphics API" according to Wikipedia, in case you're playing the world's nerdiest game of Trivial Pursuit. [iPhone]iPhone SDK Beta 3 Now Available
iPhone Devs should go grab the newest SDK release, which comes with a new tutorial and extends the beta 2.0 firmware. It also has various bug fixes and "support for the latest iPhone OS." [Apple]iPhone SDK Beta 2 Now Available

Ballmer Talks iPhone SDK, Screams Again
After dismissing the iPhone as "silly" last year (just to see it crushing Windows Mobile's market share a few days ago,) The Other Steve spilt his thoughts on the iPhone announcement yesterday, all during the Mix'08 keynote with Guy Kawasaki. Ballmer touched on Adobe-Flash-wannabe Silverlight on the iPhone, Apple's cut on iPhone's application distribution and Apple's ActiveSync license. All good, until he reprised his chimptastic "developers, developers, developers" screams, which got caught on (YES!) video: More »iPhone 2.0 Update Available for Free in June, Touch Users Get to Pay Up (Again)
