I have been reading through the slides and found it interestingly doc'd how it is like Fight Club's motto - you do not talk about .... Anyhow it should be interesting to see the long term ripple affect this will have on programmers take on Apple. The only downside I see to this is how much aggravation Apples' NDA is stirring up.

Apple finally lifted the NDA restrictions so that developers can actually talk about it with each other about a month ago or so. Thanks for letting us talk, Apple, you're so kind! ;) That said, I'm still a little skeptical about iPhone applications because of all of the rules around them, the non-transparent approval process of apps that make it into the store, and past wrongdoings (I say this as someone who primarily uses Apple computing products). Personally, I don't think I would depend on iPhone applications as a sustainable business model, maybe just one of many long tails into my service/application. But that's just the opinion of someone that writes software for a living. @mary
