WWDC Keynote: iPhone 2.0, iPhone SDK, MobileMe, iPhone Games

As always, the best live WWDC Jobs’ Keynote coverage seems to come from Engadget. Lots of interesting developments on the iPhone 2.0, the iPhone SDK and the iPhone store and one we hadn’t expected, “MobileMe” cross-platform syncing.

Sega’s announcement of Super Monkey Ball for $9.99 is somewhat surprising. The price is about 2x more than other mobile phone games, but is on par with PMP-based titles. Can the full screen, graphic rich iPhone gaming experience justify that kind of spend like a dedicated gaming device can? Certainly the over-the-air purchasing is a perk most PMPs can’t deliver.

We hoped for a few things for the iPhone and got some right (3G! GPS! 3rd Party Apps!). Turns out we were totally wrong when it came to the camera. (No updates for the camera?)
