Smartphone Showdown: iPhone 3GS vs Motorola Droid
-
This is a huge point, and one that often goes overlooked in reviews. For the past 10 years, Apple has really only done one thing, over and over: they’ve taken something we thought worked fine, and then simplified the hell out of it while maintaining the feature set. That’s exactly what they did to the idea of the smartphone with the iPhone, and it turned the damned market on its head.

Two thousand plus words later, you might be a bit sad to read: Nope. But I wouldn’t recommend the iPhone over the Droid, either – and that’s the Droid’s real win here. This is the very first phone in over two years that I would consider carrying for day-to-day use instead of my iPhone, but that doesn’t mean I would recommend it whole heartedly to everyone.

Though iPhone’s Safari browser is able to render any website just like you would
see it on a desktop browser, the available screen area is much smaller than in
common “classic” displays. This poses a new challenge for designers and
developers who now can reach millions of users that use mobile Web. Websites
that are specifically optimized for the iPhone utilize the
screen to the fullest extent, and use less bandwidth (which is necessary,
because the connectivity is not always optimal). -

mikeash.com: The iPhone Development Story: One Year Later
-
A year ago today I posted The iPhone Development Story, detailing all of the insane and largely pointless steps required to build an iPhone application. The article was incredibly popular, seeing tens of thousands of hits that weekend and still generating fresh comments even to this day. Now, a year later, it's time to look back and see where we stand today.

The Posterous iPhone app is out! PicPosterous takes away all the pain from sharing photo sets and video online - The Official Posterous Posterous
-
When you are done with that event and ready to go home, there's nothing more to do! Your photos and video
are already online. And in typical Posterous style, you don't need an account to use the app, posts include location information with Google Maps, we'll autopost to your other services, and email your posts to your subscribers.
At Posterous, we believe in making posting easier. And PicPosterous is just another way to get photos and video on your site quickly. Instead of having to wait until the end of an event to post a set of images, let them post live as you take them.

The iPhone AppStore Disaster – Why Developing Your Company’s App For It Is As Safe As Betting On Horses | BRAND INFECTION
-
During its short life of only one year so far, the AppStore – or more precisely, the approval policy of Apple – has been the target of criticism and numerous complaints coming from the press, the developers and even from the customers. While being unmistakenly the current most successful distribution network for mobile devices that is targeted at only one specific device, it is also the most curious if not politically influenced one.
