Apple announced details do the iPhone SDK today and I am impressed.

First a drag and drop UI builder, access to all OS X services, and extensive debugging and performance monitoring. The really big news is the free distribution via AppStore, a iPhone service that will allow WIFI or cell network download and install of new apps. Can you say instant gratification? Developer can charge any price and Apples handles all e-commerce and delivery for 30% fee. If price is free than there are no charges for developer or user. What company do you know will deliver your software for free? iPhone will also also auto-notify if is there is an update available.

This distribution model is a winner. Most software nowadays is given away and money made on premium versions, advertising or support services. Apple now has the hottest mobile platform by far.

We are going to see an absolute explosion of apps. Which will drive more iPhone sales leading to more apps etc.
