Steve Jobs announces Webkit2.0 photo from Engadget
Webkit2 looks amazing. Will have to read up about it more =) can I please have it in epiphany – NOW? Please =) this has been covered on LWN as well.
iPhone 4.0 SDK limits programming languages
Well well, I can’t verify this but iPhone 4.0 SDK limits programming languages to Javascript (Webkit), C, C++ & Objective-C. Although this is a large choice, but it makes impossible for C# / MonoTouch apps to enter the App Store with 4.0 API’s =(
What’s next Apple? Forcing to use XCode and not allowing apps with an Emacs or Vi mode-lines in the source-code?
Can’t wait for Lucid =) Must put the count-down banner on my blog

Forcing touchpad-based computers with no keyboards to use specific languages, yes they already did that!
A computer that’s legally restricted from running certain languages. Ridiculous.
Well you still can jail-brake it and run anything. It’s just sad that Apple isn’t going to distribute that =(
Oh, here’s an unlucky guy, his app was refused: http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/09/dashboard-ipad-app-rejected-by-apple-made-open-source-instead/
=) me loves engadget and I read all of their rss feed =))))
…so develop for Android instead and tell people not to buy Apple devices?
I have avoided buying any iPod/iPhone for years. It’s a matter of foresight. Can’t say I feel pity for the people who don’t have it.
There’s a nice write-up on the language restriction over here:

It still amazes me that Apple has this many apps for the iPhone (and touts the number of them constantly) while treating their developers with such disdain.
