McGraw-Hill’s CEO confirmed that the new Tablet device from Apple would be based on iPhone OS. That’s a big relief for all developers on iPhone and iPod Touch who would be able to continue work on the SDK and release on both platforms.
Apparently, the iTablet will have the iPhone OS 3.2 as a start, let’s see tonight for the official launch!!!
Well it’s mostly bug fixing, so we will see, I actually experienced some bugs reported, so cross fingers now…

Adobe took a new strategy to put Flash animations on the iPhone, with the release later this year of Flash Pro CS5 Beta, Adobe will enable any Flash developer to create an iPhone application (.ipa file) and then the developer could send it to Apple for approval.
So it is definitely for Flash games on the iPhone, unfortunately, no Safari plugin to be able to see flash animations on web pages.
Big news today, Vodafone is also coming in the UK iPhone market later this yeat. So now I guess all American customers of AT&T are waiting to have the same kind of choice as in UK, because AT&T hasn’t been known as being a good mobile operator with the iPhone.
