Nimble Design - /the/path/of/most/resistance
“Apple is doing something rather daring with their new iPhone OS. They are essentially omitting features that people once took for granted in a typical computer. And one of the biggest things they’ve omitted is the visual file system […] The end result is that regular folks are happier with their computers and that geeks are pissed that Apple has “dumbed down” the computer. […] I’m hoping that devices like the iPad and iPhone contribute to the demise of the visual file system. I think its death in consumer devices will lower the bar for folks who just want to do stuff and get the computer out of the way.” I couldn't agree more.
It's hard to like Android. - jerakeen.org
“[Android is] Linux vs Windows/MacOS, all over again. You gain Freedom by using an open platform, making life worse for yourself in a thousand tiny ways, any one of which can easily be dismissed, so they are. But it’s still worse.” Unfortunately, this perfectly mirrors my experiences with Android, too. I'm trying really hard to like my G1, but all it does is make me realize how much better my iPhone is.

I just assumed this was impossible. I'll bet a later update breaks this loophole — yay DRM! — but for now it's pretty nice.
furbo.org · Hello App Store
Good thoughts on the Apple Store. I disagree with the notion that a higher entry point leads to better quality, but overall I like Craig's thinking here.
MobileScrobbler: AudioScrobbler client for Apple iPhone and iPod Touch
Awesome. This is why third-party development is a must: Apple's never going to do this in-house, but it makes my iPhone that much more valuable to me.

TidBITS iPod & iPhone: Apple Nearing iPhone Third-Party Developer Announcement
From any other source I'd call bullshit, but it's Glenn Fleishman and TidBITS, and seems to line up with some rumblings I've been hearing from inside the Mothership. Who knows - anything's possible…
Call Me Fishmeal.: iPhone & iPod: contain or disengage?
Wil articulates what every long-time Mac-head is feeling these days. I'm very afraid for the future of Apple - more than I've been at any other point.

Hack the iPhone - Ringtone installation instructions
How to install custom ringtones on your iPhone. Not all that interesting, but after step 14 you've got a fully read/write iPhone root filesystem. So far most things you might want to try will brick the phone, but stay tunned — this'll get good soon…
