iPhone SDK Agreement Shuts Out HyperCard Clone
Halo1 writes "Demonstrating it's not just about Flash, Apple has officially rejected for the first time another alternative iPhone development environment following its controversial iPhone SDK Agreement changes. Even though RunRev proposed to retool its HyperCard-style development environment to directly expose all of the iPhone OS's APIs, Steve Jobs still rejected its proposal. The strength of RunRev's business case, with a large-scale iPad deployment project in education hinging on the availability of its tool, does not bode well for projects that have less commercial clout. Salient point: at last February's shareholders' meeting, Jobs went on the record saying that something like HyperCard on the iPad would be great, 'but someone would have to create it.'"
Imagine what would happen if Apple discontinued the MacBook (not Pro) in favor of the iPad XL
The proper name is maxiPad.
Wow I need to get out of mom's basement more often. When did this happen? Does that mean we're not on 1st Edition D&D now, too?
If you worked for Google, yes.
No, it means apple had used cheaper transceivers, sure they could have bought the best, but it is more like them to just pretend like they are using cutting edge technology
