3G iPhone on its way
Saturday, April 5th, 2008Walt Mossbery has said the iPhone will be going 3G in 60 days.
The iPhone should really have been 3G from day one. The entire strategy evolved around the use of the browser for 3rd parties (like ePocrates) to develop apps. But the GPRS and EDGE networks are too slow to run Web 2.0 style apps in the browser, hence the outcry and demand for the Apple SDK.
The release of the SDK and the lack of iPhone apps could have been avoided if the iPhone was 3G from day one. Perhaps time was a factor getting everything sorted for 3G from the get go. Perhaps they thought the phone networks didn’t have enought 3G coverage at the time of the official iPhone launch - do they now?
With a 3G iPhone - will you still want a non-browser version of ePocrates? Do cell phone bans mean that you sill want a non-browser version? Or is it really all about speed…
