iPhone SDK roadmap unveiled next week By Tom Krazit, CNET News.com February 28, 2008 URL: http://www.zdnet.com.au/news/communications/soa/iPhone-SDK-roadmap-unveiled-next-week-/0,130061791,339286365,00.htm
Apple distributed invitations Wednesday morning for "an iPhone software road map" event next week, which means we're finally going to hear details on the plans for an iPhone software development kit. 
iPhone roadmap invite As you might be aware, next week is March, not February, which means Apple will have missed its deadline for shipping the SDK this month. Still, on Thursday, 6 March, at 10 am PST the company will hold a "town hall" meeting at its headquarters in Cupertino to discuss the State of the iPhone, and probably answer several questions about how iPhone application development will unfold. Apple also said to expect details on "some exciting new enterprise features", which at first blush sounds to me like a method of getting the iPhone to work more closely with corporate e-mail software. It's not clear whether the SDK will actually become available next week, or whether Apple is planning to use the occasion to explain what options developers will have for getting their applications on the iPhone. Check out our report on the iPhone SDK and the possibilities for official third-party application development for more background on what might be discussed next week. Apple will be playing host twice next week, holding its annual shareholders meeting on Tuesday and then two days later for the iPhone event.
