This is great news.  I realize the magnitude of the
accomplishment just in getting this to work, but if/when you have
time would love to get a sense for what can and can't be done as

What is it that makes this iphone specific, and what plans are
there to enable ipad-adapted apps?

Sorry for the basic questions - I have no experience of iOS
development, but I figured the answer might be of interest to
