Video roundup: New apps coming to the iPhone

In March, Apple CEO Steve Jobs announced an upcoming system for downloading third-party applications for the iPhone. At the Worldwide Developers Conference on Tuesday, he brought a parade of developers onstage to show off exactly what those new apps can do.

The apps range from monkey slinging to medical imaging and should be available sometime in early July (along with the iPhone 2.0 software required to run it), according to Apple representatives.

Is there anything on the iPhone that actually allows someone to work instead of play around all day?!?! The iPhone adds should read... "great for kids but dont go to work with one unless all you do is eBay".

Yes. Did you watch any of the video. An entire long segment regarding enterprise solutions was on. 35% of fortune 500. Top categories on fields were ecstatic over the enterprise capabilities of the iPhone.

Read stuff before you make a silly comment.

since there's no voice-dial I don't use the iPhone as a phone but as a portable internet appliance. Have found it most useful for checking driving conditions, the map feature, notes and email.

The browser is only about 85%. It cannot render frames properly, and has no support for Java, Flash or activeX. Many web functions are thereby unavailable.

Does anyone know when or if these are going to be fixed? They are NOT fixed in the new iPhone, so what good is it except for games and teen-age networking?

I wonder if developers will come out with software that will allow you to send a MMS message, record video, or record sound.
