Face It - You Want Facebook On The iPhone

Facebook iPhone App Dev Quits Over App Store Policies | iPhonefreak. Apple had better get a clue. When one of the highest profile app developers, Joe Hewitt, who created the Facebook app for iPhone and other platforms, quits being an Apple developer over the ridiculous Apple restrictions, you are in trouble. If you are an iPhone user, you need to wake up. Most of us using iPhones and iPod Touches have had no trouble finding useful apps among the many available. Apple's restrictive policies are a pain; but, there are many useful apps. Now, Android looms large as a huge open source threat. If more developers figure out that they don't need Apple to sell software, Apple really is going to have a problem.

Apple lost this lawyer when it banished Google Voice. I still use my iPhone, but strictly for music & reference docs purposes. The MyTouch is always with me, allowing a seamless Google Voice experience. My call log is easily accessible, complete with optional annotations and other work-a-day goodness. Ditto my txt log. Every app I cared about on the iPhone has a counterpart on the Android. I can hear the thing ring; calls do NOT drop; and the phone can be customized to my needs. In short, the true "iPhone killer" ain't Droid; it's Apple!
