Re: Widgets with iPhone?



My guess is that the current ARM implementation of OS/X is not all that complete, or lacks hardware support for protection, or just barely has enough CPU to do the tasks advertised without either draining the battery in 2 hours, or saturating the EDGE connection. They are taking it slow on the first rev of the product. They may think that like the iPod they can control the whole platform, but I think they will learn fast that phones are not iPods. iPods are single function devices, while phones are multi-function devices (for those that pay $500 for a phone). Only time will tell.

If it's really OS X (technology) under the hood, the we have memory protection and all those other nice things.

You need to have hardware support as well for memory protection.
