Palm Pre linked on Daring Fireball:
The gist, from a software standpoint, is that all the apps are written as client-side web apps using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Isn’t this essentially the “sweet” application solution that debuted with the original iPhone that developers rebelled, bitched, moaned, and agonized over until the SDK?
So, then, what exactly is the big deal?
Chuqui has a good take on the possibility of a non-user changeable battery over at Chuqui 3.0.
I only have a couple things to add: 1) This approach might lead to Apple actually licensing the MagSafe to some companies to make useful things such as car chargers; 2) I think a second AC adapter is much more useful than a second battery. Leave it plugged in where you usually compute at home and keep one in the bag for remote use.
See Pierre Igot’s post on his blog Betalogue. I couldn’t agree more about the difference between Barry Hill’s comments (hopeful) and Eric Wilde’s comments (terminal middle management excuses for poor decisions and inaction – my conclusions btw, not Igot’s). Original Betalogue post here; John Nack post here.
Also, see John Welch’s post on his encounter with Adobe here.
