Apple’s Steve Job is finally opening its doors to third party developers on iPhone and iPod Touch. The SDK will be available this coming February 2008.
“We are excited about creating a vibrant third party developer community around the iPhone and enabling hundreds of new applications for our users. With our revolutionary multi-touch interface, powerful hardware and advanced software architecture, we believe we have created the best mobile platform ever for developers,” said Jobs in Apple’s Hot News.
Moreover, the company is taking some precautionary measures to protect iPhone users against silently spreading mobile malwares and viruses.
I guess the big hindsight question, as Nik Fletcher at tuaw.com adequately put, is: “What took you so long to let us at your beloved devices?”
