The way I see it going:
Apple want consumers
consumers want applications
applications are written by developers
but the developers have run off, fed up with the way Apple is treating
them
The problem is that this is not true. Apple has got and will keep enough
developers for making money and they're ok with that. I strongly agree
with Chris saying that Apple is now consumer oriented (I'd only specify
that it's today mostly a fashion company) and thus are more important
developers that make iPhone-like stuff - cute but mostly useless - than
those - like us - making more complex, mostly business-oriented stuff.
The change of core business to me was already evident when they dropped
"computer" from the official name. That's life.
