    Mr Jobs also gave the greenlight to third-party development of new
    applications for its forthcoming iPhone mobile phone.

    In a u-turn from a previously stated policy, he said developers would
    be able to build web applications for the device that "extend the
    capabilities of iPhone... but keep the iPhone secure".

    Instead of having to test each and every new application themselves,
    Apple will allow developers to build web applications for the phone
    which run inside the device's web browser built on existing web
    standards.

    "Apple Underwhelms"

    Jobs described the decision to allow developers to create Web-based
    applications for the iPhone as a "sweet story," and used Google as an
    example of a company whose products are able to succeed purely via a
    Web browser.

    He didn't convince the crowd. "This is almost no story," said Apple
    software developer Wolf Rentzsch. "I didn't even think they could
    offer us so little."

    Rentzsch and most other developers wanted to be able to program
    software that could be installed on the iPhone and take advantage of
    its operating system. Failing that, they had hoped to be able to run
    "plug-ins" in the Web-based programs they could develop for the
    iPhone (see "Developers To Jobs: Give Me My iPhone").
