If you do not caare for the iPhone have enough maturity to ignore it
and move on without wasting everyones else's time with comments like
the above when there are those who are looking for information and
appreciate posts on iPhone 3G developments. Another words GET A LIFE.

Yep- virtual brain aneurysm on my part, sorry! I meant to peck "developing
for iPhone", not "developing for Apple"!

The original Dataviz blog post is here:

There is a difference between the two. Knowing and then the BS you spew over
and over again. It's you that need's to get the life.

So much for thin... Now your iPhone can be as thick as my Tilt!

He was limiting the discussion to swappable, user replaceable batteries, I
assume.

No problem, though- as you've always said, the iPhone battery is certainly
user replaceable- instead of the products you mentioned above, you could
just carry this:

That doesn't excuse Oxford's continued crossposting. Where does your
slippery slope end? Are the Cletus KKK posts here ok because someone might
"appreciate" racist drivel? Maybe the recent Islamaspam is ok because it
might be interesting to someone on a cellphone NG?

The point stands that anyone who might "appreciate posts on iPhone 3G
developments" can go to the SEVERAL groups where such posts are actually ON
TOPIC, and don't need Oxford, you, or I to "deliver" them elsewhere.

the sdk has been designed to prevent access to certain things like
direct control of the cellular radio. however, one need not use much
of the sdk to write apps that won't be accepted, such as porn or hacker
apps (e.g., wifi password cracking).

someone at apple will have to install the application and see what
happens when it runs. even if it takes just a few minutes to do that,
it adds up. maybe apple thought it through, but it's not clear to me
how it can scale.

that's what i mean about not being a level playing field. how is a
newcomer going to compete against google, sega, etc. ?
