More asinine posturing from Apple as they try to fool people into believing that Web applications are iPhone applications. Shame on Apple for keeping iPhone closed to developers and shame on them for thinking that people are too stupid to see what they’re doing.

So Surf Monkey, what exactly is “what they’re doing”? Do you think that they WANT to annoy developers? I agree that it’s not right for them to try to pass the web apps off as legitimate iPhone apps, but I feel they must have a good reason for not allowing them at this point in time, even if that reason isn’t the one they have publicly given.

Surf Monkey: would you rather that Apple offered *no* support whatsoever to anyone interested in creating apps for the iPhone? I agree that native apps would be more desirable than Web apps, but this is better than a sharp stick in the eye, as my dad says.
