Apple taketh away and then giveth

Apple has announced it's releasing a toolkit for developers to create 3rd party applications for the iPhone. The kit should be out in February... not sure if the folks who hacked their phones with AppTap will be happy with waiting that long. Apple took a bit of a hit over it's 1.1.1 firmware release, since it bricked a bunch of phones and also rendered the AppTap apps useless. I suspect the February release will probably include a lot of changes (like a frieking to-do list... helloo!?). I'm quite sure there will be a slew of apps created by Apple that Jobs will unveil at the MacWorld keynote in January. Also, there's rumors that the iPhone will be enhanced when Leopard (OS 10.5) hits store shelves on October 26th... we shall see...
