As long as you start refering to the "i" in "iPhone" as Intranet and not ~Internet~ then we're cool.


My iPod Classic has no intranet or internet.

What does the "i" mean in that case???


iPod was that Harddrive MP3 Player that piggybacked on the MP3 download craze people were doing on the internet, obviously.


Ha! Thanks!

I had never thought of that!! I wonder if that same idea came into naming the iMac then??


I have nothing against hybrid apps. In many use cases, they are the best approach, and I have often declined business, in recommending them to others, as opposed to what I can do.

My post was not an attack on anyone or anything, and it was not being snarky. All I said was that I develop native apps, and that this policy does not affect me.

I like developing native apps. I've been writing native Apple software for 34 years. It's not really difficult; just different. I have also been developing "Internet" software, of all kinds (full stack), since before the WWW. Using Apple stuff. It certainly can be done.


The Internet Phone was the Cisco iPhone, not the Apple iPhone
