Apple Gets A Run For It's iPhone From SUN With SUNphone
Voxilla is reporting about a sun phone that is actually an Sun’s software stack for Rich Internet Applications (RIAs), JavaFX, which lets developers create programs that can be ported unchanged to PCs, music and video players, game consoles TV set-top boxes and…phones.
“Apple and ATT created this complete user experience and then they hamstrung it,” comments Sun CTO Bob Brewin, referring to the fact that Apple strictly limits the programs that can run on the iPhone and, until recently, the device only worked on ATT’s mobile network.
“How long do you think that’s going to last?” he continues. “Already in Asia there are companies coming out with iPhone equivalents. What’s missing is the software. Coming from Sun, I’m a huge fan of open source and open standards. [Apple’s] walled garden approach has fundamental limits. In a year or two there will be a large number of competitors to Apple.”
Well Apple heads up, Unlock iPhone!
