It seems that 3rd party applications are not wanted on the iPhone:

"In an interview with the New York Times, Steve Jobs confirms reports
that the recently-announced iPhone will not allow third party
applications to be installed. According to Jobs, 'These are devices
that need to work, and you can't do that if you load any software on
them.' In a similar vein, Jobs said in a MSNBC article that,
'Cingular doesn't want to see their West Coast network go down
because some application messed up."

There has been no mention of implications for app developers to
create apps for
the iPhone. Surely, this is running a stripped down version of OS
X Leopard.
Will the advent of Dashcode for mobile widget development and
Mobile OS X
Leopard, enable Apple to open up for developers. It would be very
unwise to have a closed system.
It is also going to be very interesting on what and how Apple will
open this up (APIs) and I hope
they don't close this like the iPod was (but that was not running
OS X). I hope Apple
addresses developers soon and open up an ecosystem and coherent
plan for developers
soon.
Thoughts? Did anyone go to any of the MacWorld developer talks?
