BusinessWeek: iPhone SDK To Be Delayed?
As you probably know, Apple promised us an SDK by the end of February of this year.
That means that they only have exactly seven days left in which to complete and release it to those who need it.
Well, according to an unnamed source from BusinessWeek, the SDK could be delayed.
As of yet, there are no details on what exactly is going on that would delay it,
or even if it really is going to be delayed or not, so this definitely still just a rumor.
Further more, the author notes that he's "also hearing that the situation is fluid,
and a lot of last-minute decisions are close to being made about what precisely will or will not be disclosed next week, if anything.
There are, apparently, a lot of moving parts to something this complex."
The iPhone SDK Will Be Late
There’s a week to go before Apple’s commitment to release the iPhone Software Developers Kit in February runs out of room.
I’m hearing from one source that its going to be late. I’m not yet hearing any reasons why,
and it’s sounding like the official release date could slide by anywhere from one to three weeks.
Apple had no comment, and as yet there’s no word on any events related to an SDK release next week.
However I’m also hearing that the situation is fluid,
and a lot of last-minute decisions are close to being made about what precisely will or will not be disclosed next week, if anything.
There are, apparently, a lot of moving parts to something this complex.
Remember if you will that BusinessWeek broke the story of Apple’s plans to release an iPod SDK in October,
a day before CEO Steve Jobs announced the company’s intentions himself via a statement on the “Hot News” section of Apple’s Web site.
So will they make it to the finish line in time or will they have to fudge it a little? We’ll all be watching next week.
