Yep. I think the point is that Apple will be the only source, but they'll offer them on the phone itself and in itunes.

I guarantee we'll see a veritable explosion of iPhone activity over the coming months. Very exciting times... now, about those iMac updates...

Bob Borchers?

I can't find the iPhone 2.0 beta download after I paid my $99. Anyone find it?
