This stuff just blows that game development platform for Zune announcement. There is no way in hell they can even come close to what was just showed today. This stuff was written in weeks.... Amazing.

The iPhone is about to EXPLODE!

I wish I could watch the event about the iPhone ON my iPhone!

Okay, to clarify. I'm assuming can watch it once I'm at home with my AirPort/WiFi, I was referring to downloading the QT file onto my iPhone and watching it where I want. EDGE doesn't seem to work with this.

Try VLC to get the stream. I'll give it a shot when I get home.

It's worth watching even if you're not a geek. Apple got several developers to visit Cupertino, each spending 2 weeks prepping a software demo for this event. What they made in that short time was quite cool.

People are prognosticating that this is Apple's 'backdoor' route into the business world, one innocuous phone at a time: The opposite of the Trojan Horse.

And can you believe: $100m from KPCB?? This is a really Big Deal.

Now all I need is $399...

Oh I wish I could write code. I might just start learning. Or maybe I'll just sit back and enjoy the codes written for me, oh I mean my iPhone.

@ The Other Steve

Did you give the QT video a try on the iPhone? I have watched streaming QT through websites, so I know it works. I'd try right now through apple.com but I'm syncing a movie. If I get to it I'll write back...

Dudes/Dudettes,

QT streaming video through Safari WORKS! Don't let people tell you it doesn't. Try the link on this page through MDN's comment. It takes you to the Apple page. Then click on the "Watch the Presentation" and give it about 5 or 10 seconds. It'll pop up a full screen and your video will start to run!

The "best entrepreneur in the world" comment from John Doerr to SPJ is likely to have GeekBoy grinding his teeth in Redmond.

I don't care how much money you've got, it must hurt to know that - as far as your peer-group is concerned - you're not really the cool kid on the block.

The iPhone is an unstoppable juggernaut. The video shows the basis for its ascent toward an unassailable share of the world market in a segment bigger than personal computers.

If you're the competition, be afraid. Be very afraid. There is no way you can touch this. It's turned around the oft-quoted sentence that should now read like this: "What the hell could a cellphone company know about developing cellphones?"

I'm more than impressed. I've always seen the cellphone as an iPod killer in the sense that one should only need to carry one device. On that paradigm, the industry must've thought they had it made in the long run. Well, they've been caught thinking small. Very small. Wow,

Do you think Apple will in the future add a game-specific Touch model to their lineup, meaning better framerates and battery life? Now that Apple has the technology, Apple could become big in games. Yes, the iPod Touch will do fine, but a games optimized Touch will be better. Games, like phones, is a huge market and maybe Apple will tap into it?

"Do you think Apple will in the future add a game-specific Touch model to their lineup, meaning better framerates and battery life?"

It's always possible. I imagine that customer demand will drive future development.
