iPhone Developer on Ulitzer

What am I describing, that you can currently find in an any Apple Store…

Quirky, Old looking, Tired.

Still guessing? Well read on...

It was only a matter of time, especially as with the SDK 3.0, developing for an accessory was made possible… Now within the next few weeks Apple Retail will withdraw the Symbol based devices running Windows CE and replace it with an iPod Touch based device with custom credit card reader. Is that a cheer I hear? I've always wondered when this will happen and initially the roll put will be in the US, but other countries will follow soon after.
