These are the same people who charge extra for a ringbone of a song you already paid for not to mention they'll be keen to keep 3rd party developers happy. I foresee a point where free alternatives to commercial apps mean the choice between squashing some or all freeware or losing 3rd party support and profit.

I take your point and I quite like apple as a company, their intentions seem good. But they are a company and there stand to potentially lose out on a lot of money if they allow freeware onto the Iphone

As far as the JVM I’m very excited to see the support for bluetooth, wifi, duel touch. Then the compulsory Eclipse plugin, maybe a WYSIWYG Editor by the end of the year.

Still can’t afford one )-;
