With seven days left in the month to announce the iPhone SDK, BusinessWeek is reporting that a reliable source has it that Apple will be delaying officially sanctioned 3rd party apps, making it late by between one to three weeks. Yes, it would absolutely suck -- but there's always Ziphone.

One also has the option of buying a real phone, like the N95-3 or something else. And waiting for the ipod Touch phone to get good....

ha ha N95, try putting that ugly thing in your pocket. Oh wait it'll probably suddenly stop working before that.

The N95? The same N95 that feels like it is cheaply made? The same N95 that has light pouring out of every hole because it is poorly sealed? The same N95 that is so thick it makes you look like you have a sideways hardon when its in your pocket? THAT N95? You can keep it.

We're talking about a late sdk, not which phone is better...
Anybody remember when Mac used to be closer to the linux crowd than the microsoft crowd? The way this phone is closed off really goes against the open-source movement and seems like a total reversal. Apple has taken an open source foundation and locked it up tighter than a freshly incarcerated felon's--well, you can imagine.
As for my reply to these messages:
Heathen was referring to the n-95 that has expandable memory, GPS built-in, doesn't have to be hacked to be useful, isn't nearly as big as people who don't own them and have never used one all seem to think they are, has a 5 megapixel camera and exquisite video recording capability, is without a screen that bubbles or shatters, has a user-replaceable battery; and with regard to the POINT of this article, the n95 is as open source with its s60 platform as phones get these days.
