Gallery: The iPhone 2.0 Keynote
<img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_wwdc/wwdc_10_t.jpg'></img>: Photo: Jim Merithew/Wired.com<p> SAN FRANCISCO -- As conferences go, Apple's Worldwide Developer Conference ranks low on the sexiness factor. It's a good bet that, without the promise of a new, iPhone 3G, the programmer-centric conference would not have drawn the hundreds of broadcast, print and blog journalists that it did. </p> <p> Fortunately, Apple CEO Steve Jobs did have a new iPhone up his sleeve, and after spending an hour selling the company's new iPhone development tools and previewing some of the platform's forthcoming apps, Jobs delivered what we all came for: the new phone. </p><p> The iPhone 3G, as it will be called, will cost $200 for an 8-GB version, $300 for a 16-GB version. Both will be available in a new, slightly rounded case with a shiny black-plastic back. The 16-GB version will also be available with a white back. </p><p> Breaking with Jobs' keynote tradition, the iPhone 3G is not yet available: Both models will go on sale July 11 in 22 countries. Apple plans to make the phone available in 75 countries within several months. </p><p> For details, check out our full coverage of the <a href="http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2008/06/liveblog-steve.html">WWDC 2008 keynote</a>, or browse these slides for the highlights. </p> <p> <strong>Left: </strong>Jobs' normal "reality-distortion field" seemed to be at ebb during today's keynote, which many observers noted was less exciting than a typical Jobs presentation. Indeed, Jobs -- looking thinner than ever in his trademark black mock-turtleneck -- let his deputies take most of the stage time. More than one audience member noticed that Jobs seemed to be looking a little wan and have less energy than usual. And maybe it's time for a new turtleneck? This one was looking a little gray, not to mention baggy. </p> <img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_wwdc/wwdc_04_t.jpg'></img>: Photo: Jim Merithew/Wired.com<p> Apple's Phil Schiller, a regular fixture at Apple keynotes, touted the phone's new integration with Microsoft Exchange using "ActiveStink -- I mean ActiveSync." Was that an intentional dig at the Cupertino company's sometime competitor, sometime partner? Or was it a true Freudian slip, indicating Schiller's habitual distaste for the nearly ubiquitous Microsoft standard? </p> <p> It's not clear. One thing is sure, though: Apple has provided deep and meaningful enterprise tools in the 2.0 version of the iPhone software, including the ability to "push" e-mail, calendar and contact updates. The company has also given IT managers the ability to zero out any data on a corporate iPhone, remotely -- handy when one of them goes missing. </p> <img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_wwdc/wwdc_9_t.jpg'></img>: Photo: Jim Merithew/Wired.com<p> Apple executive Scott Forstall demonstrates how easy it is to create an iPhone application using the software development kit's new tools. You just drag in this snippet of code here, drop a button there and presto! Instant contact manager. </p> <p> Like other software-development demos, this one had a lot in common with cooking demonstrations on TV: So much depends on having everything set up just right, ahead of time. In real life, you'd spend half a day doing prep work before you got to do the five minutes of dragging-and-dropping that Forstall showed onstage. </p> <p> Still, developer after developer testified to the ease of developing iPhone apps. It's clear that if you're used to coding OS X apps, the iPhone should be a cakewalk. </p> <img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_wwdc/wwdc_8_t.jpg'></img>: Photo: Jim Merithew/Wired.com<p> One of the applications shown at the March preview of the iPhone SDK was Sega's popular Nintendo DS title <cite>Super Monkey Ball</cite>. This game will be available for the iPhone for $10 -- once the iPhone App Store opens -- and will feature all four cute little monkeys and more than 100 different levels. Players control the rolling monkeys simply by tilting the iPhone this way and that. </p> <img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_wwdc/wwdc_7_t.jpg'></img>: Photo: Jim Merithew/Wired.com<p> Developers who want to create location-aware applications have plenty to drool over with the new iPhone 2.0 operating system, which has plenty of support for geographic data. In addition to the first-generation iPhone's ability to do geolocation by triangulating nearby WiFi hotspots and cell towers, the iPhone 3G will also have a GPS receiver, giving the device the ability to track its movements with great precision. </p> <p> In this demo by location-sensitive social network Loopt, the orange pin denotes the user's location, while blue pins show nearby friends. Looking for someone to have lunch with? Loopt can help you hook up with someone and can even help recommend a cute little local cafe. (Friends not included.) </p> <img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_wwdc/wwdc_6_t.jpg'></img>: Photo: Jim Merithew/Wired.com<p> Major League Baseball's iPhone app takes advantage of the phone's fast 3-G and WiFi data connections to provide real-time game scores -- and "real-time video clips." That doesn't mean you'll be able to watch streaming video of the whole game, but highlight clips will be available for you to view within "minutes" after they happen, the MLB developer promised. </p> <img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_wwdc/wwdc_5_t.jpg'></img>: Photo: Jim Merithew/Wired.com<p> Among the most impressive iPhone app demos of the day were graphics-intensive ones, including a medical-imaging program and this game, called <cite>Kroll</cite>, from Digital Legends. In the demo, a fully animated character ran through a beautifully rendered fantasy landscape, battling winged demons and an immense, scary-looking giant whose steps shook the very screen. </p> <p> Like the many other developers who took the stage, Digital Legends touted the ease of porting its OS X software to the iPhone -- and also provided an impressive demonstration of the phone's built-in 3-D video capabilities. In terms of graphics quality, this game looked comparable to what you might find on a PlayStation 2. </p> <img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_wwdc/wwdc_03_t.jpg'></img>: Photo: Jim Merithew/Wired.com<p> Perhaps the biggest news of the day was a three-digit number: $199, the price of the 8-GB iPhone 3G. That's a significant drop from the current price for the 8-GB first-generation iPhone ($399), and a huge drop from the $600 that it cost when Apple first introduced the iPhone a year ago. </p> <p> As if the mere figure weren't impressive enough, Jobs had the price stomp onto the screen with massive booming sounds, saving him from having to actually say the word <em>Boom</em>. </p> <img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_wwdc/wwdc_02_t.jpg'></img>: Photo: Jim Merithew/Wired.com<p> The new iPhone 3G comes with a shiny black-plastic back, in contrast to the current model's matte aluminum. If you decide to spring for the more capacious 16-GB model (which will cost $299), you can also choose a shiny white-plastic back. </p> <p> The iPhone 3G itself doesn't appear to be any smaller, thinner or lighter than the current version, although it has tapered, slightly rounded edges, which will either make it feel thinner or make it feel more like a bar of soap. </p> <img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_wwdc/wwdc_01_t.jpg'></img>: Photo: Jim Merithew/Wired.com<p> Jobs made his customary brief appearance in the middle of the crowd, surrounded by burly bodyguards, after the keynote wrapped up. However, he didn't spend any time chitchatting with the hoi polloi, and no one got any hands-on time with his shiny new gadget. </p><br style="clear: both;"/> <a style='font-size: 10px; color: maroon;' href='http://www.pheedo.com/hostedMorselClick.php?hfmm=v2:f4072efdba562c1401266ed4df065687:lKX6Pe3ImA8xJfD2RrTVsrZ2CVufQx9XQBNboU75xNy6V5N3UmuwZkNfac86m5RKlr2kpsym8wqw9%2FAICepql7DyJhYPKwWSbDUZBRtbleU%3D'><img border='0' title='Add to Reddit' alt='Add to Reddit' src='http://www.pheedo.com/images/mm/reddit.png'/></a> <a style='font-size: 10px; color: maroon;' href='http://www.pheedo.com/hostedMorselClick.php?hfmm=v2:9309cde26e3708dafebf3cfd622a5d67:018qIvoscNe0CFwPLojt9OP73reIhRoxdOAjqSxITafnh461Ll4%2F8FgMZaXbf%2BirY%2Byt5TWw2fHjetifOX48ZgdqCSTsjUgZWSU1fL2oYHI%3D'><img border='0' title='Add to digg' alt='Add to digg' src='http://www.pheedo.com/images/mm/digg.gif'/></a> <a style='font-size: 10px; color: maroon;' href='http://www.pheedo.com/hostedMorselClick.php?hfmm=v2:767f034be01083c1a961cdbf2e7fe5f0:wcq3inU%2Fa0EJvhK29vVfPILcLnoRFm4K8cTZ78O0%2FHxXKNNMyqZ9E5iD87Tj6bzqwcH%2FMPT8pGIgVvOSk1SCG%2FdLf8gPsfTQj%2FGNjYQRWAI%3D'><img border='0' title='Add to Facebook' alt='Add to Facebook' src='http://www.pheedo.com/images/mm/facebook.gif'/></a> <br style="clear: both;"/> <img alt="" style="border: 0; height:1px; width:1px;" border="0" src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?i=a7b0ebb0e7aa97547435f606165670bc" height="1" width="1"/> <img src="http://www.pheedo.com/feeds/tracker.php?i=a7b0ebb0e7aa97547435f606165670bc" style="display: none;" border="0" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> <p><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~a/wired/culture/cultofmac?a=v7XlbP"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~a/wired/culture/cultofmac?i=v7XlbP" border="0"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/wired/culture/cultofmac/~4/308437056" height="1" width="1"/> <p><a href="http://feeds.wired.com/~a/wired/gadgets/mac?a=Hgwl57"><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~a/wired/gadgets/mac?i=Hgwl57" border="0"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?a=9lDKII"><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?i=9lDKII" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?a=Mrctdi"><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?i=Mrctdi" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?a=EQigki"><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?i=EQigki" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?a=Nx0YVI"><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?i=Nx0YVI" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/gadgets/mac/~4/308437063" height="1" width="1"/>


Gallery: From Mind-Blowing to Mockery -- The iPhone 2 Mocked Up
<img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_iphone_concept/1_t.jpg'></img>: <p> The creative types that make up Apple's fan base have been busy dreaming up the ideal iPhone, Version 2. (Steve Jobs is expected to introduce the real thing on Monday.) </p> <p> The release of a new Apple product is an opportunity for Apple fans to dream big -- and make fun of the company they love. </p> <p> This collection of iPhone 2 mock-ups runs the gamut, from the mundane to the mind-blowing. Check out the iPhone Pico -- a mini-iPhone that's smaller than a pinkie fingernail. We wish! </p> <p> These mock-ups were designed by the readers of iLounge, which held a competition to find the <a href="http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/gallery/category/C87/P160/">best ideas for the new iPhone</a>. The full list of winners are included in iLounge's free <a href"http://www.ilounge.com/book4">iPod + iPhone Book 4</a>. </p> <p> <strong>iPhone See-through</strong></cite> <p> <strong>Left:</strong> This mock-up by Robert Davis of Cornelius, North Carolina, is thin, lightweight and crystal clear. It runs a full version of Leopard (not a stripped-down one) and has a 5-megapixel camera. Not very realistic -- or practical -- but pretty. </p> <img src='http://www.wired.com/images/slideshow/2008/06/gallery_iphone_concept/2_t.jpg'></img>: <p> <strong>iPhone Pro</strong></cite> <p> The iPhone Pro by A. Berio of Los Angeles is an iPhone for well, the pros. Boasting a 1024x768 display, the iPhone Pro also has Intel's latest Atom processor and runs OS X Leopard.

Forget the Courts &#151; Apple May Fight Mac Clones With Tech
<p> Apple may have a hard time shutting down the new maverick Mac-clonemaker Psystar, say legal experts. </p> <p> <a href="http://psystar.com/">Psystar</a>, a Miami-based IT services company, started advertising the $400 <a href="http://blog.wired.com/gadgets/2008/04/openmac-a-poor.html">OpenComputer</a> this week. It's a generic PC that comes with Leopard, Apple's latest operating system, pre-installed. </p> <p> And while Psystar may be violating Apple's end user license agreement, or EULA, by doing this, legally there's not much Apple can do about it, says <a href="http://www.rajpatent.com/">Raj Abhyanker</a>, a patent lawyer who used to write patents for Apple. </p> <p> "Basically, when people go to a store or download software, they have a license with Apple to use this patented software on their computer. But breach of contract is one of the weakest forms of legal disputes," Abhyanker says, referring to EULA violations. </p> <p> The emergence of an unlicensed Mac clonemaker is a sign of Apple's growing market power. The Cupertino company sold more than 2.3 million Macs during the first quarter of 2008 -- a growth rate that's more than 2.5 times that of the overall PC market, according to research firm IDC. Apple had an official clone-licensing program in the mid-1990s, but Steve Jobs killed it in 1997 after returning to lead Apple. </p> <p> Based on the <a href="http://www.psystar.com/index.php?&page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage_images.tpl&product_id=1&category_id=3&manufacturer_id=4&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=72">company's website claims</a>, engineers at Psystar appear to be emulating parts of the Mac firmware on a Windows PC -- fooling Leopard into thinking it's running on top of genuine Apple hardware. </p> <p> Psystar claims it can successfully install Leopard's kernel straight from the OS X disc using an EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) emulator and a few drivers to ensure everything runs smoothly. What's more, Psystar is offering the pre-installation of Leopard for free if you order its budget Mac clone, the $400 OpenComputer, and purchase a copy of Leopard. </p> <p> Abhyanker, an attorney who used to write patents for the Cupertino company and now runs his own patent firm, says Apple will have trouble preventing companies like Psystar from selling Leopard systems, especially now that Apple uses the same hardware as 99 percent of the rest of the PC industry. </p> <p> In terms of a deterrent, Abhyanker says suing another company for violating a contract doesn't even come close to a tort or patent infringement case. </p> <p> "Those types of litigation ultimately have a lot more remedies for a plaintiff," he says. "But if you look at breach of contract, it's usually limited (depending on the state) to the amount of services or the amount of goods as subject to the contract. The maximum damage Apple would be able to claim is the price of Leopard -- actually, the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) price of Leopard, which might be a few dollars." </p> <!--pagebreak--> <p> Even then, Apple may not be able to sue Psystar directly because the company may be buying legitimate copies of Leopard from a distributor. In that case, the distributor would be liable for a breach-of-contract suit. </p> <p> The problem, say lawyers contacted by Wired.com, is that breaking a EULA technically isn't illegal (it's not a signed or executable contract) and penalties tend to vary from state to state, making it very hard to stop. </p> <p> "Generally speaking, these user agreements are much weaker than other forms of litigation," says Ted Man, a lawyer specializing in intellectual property and patents. "They're way more problematic, too. It's like going into an ER -- those incredibly broad license agreements they make you sign where you're basically signing away your life. Companies make them as broad as possible but there's no way to basically enforce them. It's a scare tactic, a way to say, hey, we're reserving all these rights," says Man. </p> <p> If Apple sued Psystar, a private company, it would likely need to come up with a much better legal basis -- something like patent or copyright infringement, or misappropriation of trade secrets. Even then, says Abhyanker, it's not clear that Psystar is violating Apple's patents or trade secrets. For a patent infringement lawsuit, Apple would have to clearly show it had claims to patents on the particular simulator methodology Psystar is using -- which it may or may not have. </p> <p> "Based on the fact that there's more than 20 years of emulator software out there, I don't see how they could claim infringement narrowly enough for what this particular company is doing," Abhyanker says. </p> <p> In a famous 1983 case, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_v._Franklin">Apple Computer, Inc. v. Franklin Computer Corp.</a>, Apple successfully convinced a California court that computer software in electronic form could be protected by copyright. </p> <p> Engineers at Franklin Computer copied parts of Apple's operating system for the Apple II computer so it could also run on the Franklin Ace computer. Apple filed suit claiming copyright infringement and, while a judged initially sided with Franklin, in 1983 an appeals court overturned the ruling, saying that operating systems coded in computer hardware are subject to copyright. </p> <p> While Apple could likely tie Psystar up in litigation by filing patent or copyright lawsuits, the better choice may be technical -- issuing OS X firmware updates. </p> <p> "Apple issues regular updates to Leopard," Abhyanker says. "Future revisions might require massive changes to the way [Psystar] sells software in this virtual environment and usually these things don't last long unless there's some sort of agreement." </p> <p> In the end, the clonemaker is always playing catch-up and it ends up being caught in a compatibility nightmare. </p> <p> Psystar did not respond to multiple requests for comment, nor did Apple. </p><br style="clear: both;"/> <a style='font-size: 10px; color: maroon;' href='http://www.pheedo.com/hostedMorselClick.php?hfmm=v2:0eb72a61e6c4c50d96e52e833c058c7d:%2B5jqzOs1ixupZ5fbP2UrVhyqMzcCoLFUH%2FTpRYyxtp9ZtfmzefaQQcFcywzBUxhbRWizPZAQVhINANJdp1xNFCZ%2BQz3%2BzajNMb6WBNZ37iM%3D'><img border='0' title='Add to Reddit' alt='Add to Reddit' src='http://www.pheedo.com/images/mm/reddit.png'/></a> <a style='font-size: 10px; color: maroon;' href='http://www.pheedo.com/hostedMorselClick.php?hfmm=v2:575133ebc39fc3e4c02c9c8f2a401360:ZiuDtIOVnx5m%2FE874FkHTQ8D5MXsA%2FUKwo2po9l2ZancQ4dD1XKvjXNcPeZblcylEkp77zctZRZWNEc%2BPjEveUWcqJWZhnMtde7mAFdxhTU%3D'><img border='0' title='Add to digg' alt='Add to digg' src='http://www.pheedo.com/images/mm/digg.gif'/></a> <a style='font-size: 10px; color: maroon;' href='http://www.pheedo.com/hostedMorselClick.php?hfmm=v2:25874acb881a0976a11ec682dab4d12a:O7%2ByV1v0gMZHm6tK4LTZgWiIIv86kYwmRc7%2FL6L1chJz2WD4wAFWZDUS9hISVhC7v3YZbONJs1pUXA9e4cH9NGILffyo4RFLXNS9WUqLP8o%3D'><img border='0' title='Add to Facebook' alt='Add to Facebook' src='http://www.pheedo.com/images/mm/facebook.gif'/></a> <br style="clear: both;"/> <img alt="" style="border: 0; height:1px; width:1px;" border="0" src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?i=03ad861ab06fd04364c0fe87fe41f180" height="1" width="1"/> <img src="http://www.pheedo.com/feeds/tracker.php?i=03ad861ab06fd04364c0fe87fe41f180" style="display: none;" border="0" height="1" width="1" alt=""/> <p><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~a/wired/culture/cultofmac?a=0fYyXf"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~a/wired/culture/cultofmac?i=0fYyXf" border="0"></img></a></p><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/wired/culture/cultofmac/~4/271055097" height="1" width="1"/> <p><a href="http://feeds.wired.com/~a/wired/gadgets/mac?a=Mnxa4d"><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~a/wired/gadgets/mac?i=Mnxa4d" border="0"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?a=EZWSZVG"><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?i=EZWSZVG" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?a=984tRIg"><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?i=984tRIg" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?a=TifYN7g"><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?i=TifYN7g" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?a=IsSOQ2G"><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~f/wired/gadgets/mac?i=IsSOQ2G" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.wired.com/~r/wired/gadgets/mac/~4/271055099" height="1" width="1"/>
