What if there is no Apple Tablet?
A few recent articles on various rumors sites made me think that in late January we may very well not see any Apple iSlate tablet-sized iPod-Touch-like or Mac-like device.
It is very likely that a new iPhone SDK will be introduced, and that this will allow iPhone Apps to support different screen resolutions. It is very likely that a 10-11″ OLED/LCD display based product will be introduced, but…
Mobile Apps cross-platform development challenge: PhoneGap vs. Titanium vs. Rhodes
What is the best cross-platform mobile framework out there?
