iPhone disappoints mobile developers – Yahoo! News: Can I just say how funny this whole iPhone SDK debate is? I’ve spent the past two years reading on and on, on blog after blog, how Web 2.0 and AJAX is the best thing since bread came sliced. How it opens the web up as a true platform for high level web development that can work on any device/platform that supports the XMLHttpRequest. How AJAX changes the entire nature of what a web based application is. And then, Apple says “You are right! And it provides us a way of making a secure, easy to monetize (for you and us), easy to administer and open ecosystem for the iPhone.” Apple basically says: guys, AJAX is indeed the way, and everyone freaks out?
