Third-Party iPhone applications, and lack there-of.
Apple’s decision not to allow third-party applications to be installed on the iPhone never bothered me, untill Today. I’ve got a modest Motorola e815. It was the king of the clamshell-phone-hill about a year and a half ago and I’ve never installed any third party apps, or even really wanted to, but today got me thinking.
My Trig class was just getting over when I had (as you can see I use the term “had” very loosely) to pull out my MacBook to add my assignments to Assignment Planner. That was the point when I realized how awesome it would be to have third-party application support.
Like always, Merlin Mann has a much better article and more indepth discusson about 3rd party development on the iPhone here.
