yes, but your 3D app was very primitive, not worthy of consideration for
a high end crowd. Plus it was a silly sports game for kids, not a
serious App.

You need to really realize what you are dealing with here, Bill Joy the
founder of Java is a HUGE mac fan, so Java Apps will be coming to the
iPhone, but not cheesy ones that only interest 10th graders.

No, most of us know the future, and have designed it. We just have to
deal with underlings that haven't yet caught up to our vision.

Yes, and Apple has Remote Desktop that puts your Java App to SHAME.

You don't seem to understand when you are dealing with the Apple world,
you are dealing with the pioneers of all this stuff, Apple sets the
rules for the world, others later follow, and that's been true for
nearly 32 years.

Not 51 hours before launch, but a few weeks after, Skype will run much
better on the iPhone than any other cell phone made.

Then learn how to do it, Java isn't going to make you a single penny,
it's too old school, but Apple's WebKit could make you millions, IF you
put down your silly games and white castle hamburgers and move out of a
blue collar state.

Great, and only getting about 20% of the functionality of what Safari
for the iPhone can do.
