iPhone App Considerations

• Developers need to think different: yes it is connected, however . . . yes it is always on, however . . .

• Need to use the small screen wisely

• Your native app must run in 64MB or less

• No background processing & notification

• Touch is different than click

• Peripherals supported by Bluetooth

iPhone AppStore

• Apple will select, market, promote, download and perform payment processing for all public iPhone applications

• Apple will take 30% of revenue, free software will be allowed

• How will updates, try-before-you-buy, volume pricing and returns be handled?

• What will be the relationship to the Enterprise deployment tools?
