Re: IST finally has an iPhone!

Congratulations Bernie!

And even more good news, Apple finally caved and is eventually rolling
out an SDK for the iPhone next spring.

So things could get interesting, but IMHO, it will likely lead to at
least the opportunity of a more secure platform. Currently it's relying
on inaccessibility/obscurity for much of it's security, and that's not
working out so well. Not to mention all processes currently run as root...

All that said, it's still pretty cool, especially for a v1.0. Have a
blast with the new toy^H^H^H evaluation unit.
