Our new podcast: Meet...
We know. Podcasts are so last year - but this one you won't want to miss. Whether it’s a rumor that won’t die, a new product announcement, or just a really good Macintosh or iPhone app find that we have to let you know about, we’ll make sure it’s covered on Appletellcast.
iPhone App Reviews
iPhone Apps. They were great when the App Store was first announced and we could all pick and chose what we wanted, but the number is now overwhelming. Here at Appletell, we'll detail the great iPhone apps we find, and steer you clear from those that aren't worth it even if they're free.
iPhone Game Reviews
As Apple turns the iPhone into one of the most popular gaming devices, the staff of Appletell--gamers and Apple fans alike--are here to help you get the most entertainment value out of your app store purchases.
We’ve all heard about how good the iPhone SDK is, but what about the downsides. Some major developers have been wanting to create apps for the iPhone and iPod Touch, but Firefox, Java and apps that run in the background may not be allowed. These highly valued apps may not be allowed to Apple’s Published APIs agreement.
This could mean that unless an app is using webkit, it may not be able to run. Mozilla developer Rob Sayre wrote a blog post about how Apple is banning Firefox, SpiderMonkey, Lisp, Lua, Ruby, Python, Rhino, Java, Opera, .NET and all the apps that rely on those frameworks and several others. This would mean that popular apps such as Photoshop, Word, Excel, Flash, Freetype, Zork, Quake, Unreal and Second Life would not run on the iPhone.
Though we do have to remember the “Beta” part of the name. Let’s hope that Apple will fix this flaws to block many technologies to run on the device.
