    @TheSonOfKrypton: That's a bit extreme, don't you think? I have a jailbroken 3g and use it for facebook, email and (surprise) a phone. There are a lot of people like me who don't need gimmicky beer apps or whatever. +1 to the guy below who mentioned papertoss. That is the only game any of the grownups I know with iphones play.

    As long as they can get some great apps like Shazam and Urbanspoon on the Pre they'll be okay. Although if it can't run Paper Toss, it's dead to me.

    The internals aren't gimped, they just aren't being used.

    Palm could easily increase the polling rate for the accelerometer, allowing developers to use as many samples they wish in a given amount of time. Secondly, Palm could (but not necessarily is) work on another SDK or API to give developers more lower-level access to the hardware.

    But, let's be frank: more than an insignificant amount of applications in Apple's App Store could function just the same on the Pre as they do on the iPhone. But, when it comes to applications and software that need more access to special hardware functions, Pre developers (like myself) are losing out.

    @nutbastard: "note: editing a comment removes images."

    Actually, in my experience, sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't, very inconsistent behavior. The Gawker tech team seems to still have a lot of work to do here--not to mention I, for one, will be enormously disappointed if this remains our only option for posting pics (i.e., we are not allowed to simply embed photos via standard HTML tags, the way we used to do).

    This guy is an Iphone developer and doesn't work for Palm. He's just saying that you can't use opengl with the Mojo SDK to access the hardware. That doesn't mean there won't be something down the line that lets you or adds support for it. Isn't the SDK still in beta?

    and now we know why they are marketing to women with their weird feminine hygiene ads.

    i figured this phone was doomed from the get-go because of it's craptastic form-factor, but learning of their gimped internals really makes me wanna throw a handful of dirt on 'em.

    Palm is making a really stupid move here.

    6 out of the top 10 paid apps in the App Store are games. Customers like games because they're fun. Developers like games because customers buy them.

    I can imagine that eventually Palm with add gaming abilities to the SDK, but until they do, I think that their App Catalogue will be limited.

    I just registered, the developer kit contains the emulator, cli tools and eclipse plugins.



    As a fun fact, the SDK is Windows only (Virtual Box is required on Linux and MacOS X)

    Great news? Momemtum of launch? I have a pre and look forward to this, but it was a terrible move to delay more apps given Apple's strangle hold on the market. This should have been released with or before the phone was and they should be accepting apps as they are available. Which I imagine for some easy ones wouldn't take very long.

    In reply to iPhone 3.1 SDK Available Now
    You guys got the release notes slightly wrong. These notes about a closely matching simulator, Xcode, etc. are all left over from the 3.0 release - these are already implemented changes.


    The real changes in 3.1 are few and subtle. I hope i'm not breaking my NDA by disclosing this, but here it goes: there are a few bugfixes, plus a new API for video capturing, and that's it - no other significant changes.
