Excerpt of article text...
Like half the planet, I've developed a fascination with Apple's newest must-have gadget, the iPhone. With its huge high resolution display, easy-to-use multi-touch interface, seamless integration of multiple functions, and simple computer syncing, it's truly a revolutionary device. But as a developer, I'm most intrigued about creating iPhone applications. And I want to do it with REALbasic!
Unfortunately, Apple has yet to open the iPhone to third party developers, and even if they did, I have no idea if or how REALbasic would fit into that picture. Most likely REAL Software would have to add specific iPhone support for REALbasic to generate iPhone compatible applications. But with Apple not releasing development information, I wouldn't count on that happening right away.
Apple's current solution for third party software is via "Web 2.0" applications. Basically, fancy interactive websites. These are usually built using dynamic HTML, Javascript, and server-side code. Not something I know much about or have an interest in developing.
