Interesting news has come out of a survey of developers that are attending the WWDC event in San Francisco. According to the survey, up to 70% of the developers surveyed said that their application would not cost you a penny. Whats more, the average price out of all the developers that did charge for their applications, was a mere $2.29.

Considering most applications cost quite a bit more than $3, in fact an average price you see is about $10. With prices this low, along with the large amount of iPhone owners, the platform will be a major developer target. The touch screen control, and beefy hardware specs, with the addition of 3G, makes the iPhone ripe for the picking.

I’ve gotta question hopefully somebody can answer. You know how the iPhone has a “tv out” feature? Where if you buy the component cables you can watch video from the iPhone on your tv. Well I was just thinking how cool it would be if you could play games on your tv with the iPhone and just use the iPhone as a controller. Does anybody know if this will be possible?

They did that for the Keynote presentation but I don’t have any personal experience with this. GL

I think the ipod has this option, so there is no reason why this wouldnt…
if it worked at the keynote - it can work at your house too
