I don’t know if I buy this, but if it’s real, I’ll be stoked. From BusinessWeek:”Sources familiar with the company’s plans tell BusinessWeek.com that Apple will release a software-development kit for the iPhone in early 2008.” I don’t know. More reasonable speculation from Leander at Cult of Mac and Ars points towards a hybrid app system that works like dashboard widgets, with offline storage, but no SDK for native apps. That’ll give people app-ish type programs without root access. Either way, this is BusinessWeek’s prediction, not ours, so we’ll let them take credit for the hit (or miss). [Businessweek]
