Hi, I’m Apple and I like to..

Filed Under Apple, iPhone |

ban people from using my iPhone SDK to do useful things, presumably so I can do those useful things with less features and sell them for more than the 3rd party would with more features.

Edit: Oh and heaven forbid people have applications that actually run in the background.  That would be the “wrong solution” so instead we’ll wait until september for them to give us a server to push “events” to the phones instead of letting us have the functionality immediately.  Everyone should just forget that practically every other mobile platform out there aside from the ever-crappy PalmOS allows background processes in some form or another without killing battery life.

Edit 2: So it looks like it was a sham (copied from the google maps terms), but the first edit still stands.
