revision3.com— This short video brings up an interesting question, how long till the iPhone is, so to speak, hacked and has running on it third-party applications?

The real question is - will Apple and/or AT&T allow it? I could see it becoming similar to the Sony PSP crap where someone hacks it and we get a better device then Sony fixes whatever vulnerability allowed the hack. Repeat every month.
1) Retarded Video 2) I can't believe it was dugg on digg.com by 88 ppl at this time... 3) No one cares that people are waiting over night for it. They line up overnight for boxing day sales... what's the big deal? It's a friggin phone... ya it's iPod-ish... oh joy... Since the iPod came out, I hated the battery life on it. It got better but it still sucks after a year of usage. I like the eye candy, don't like mac's personally. The phone is slick, but I wouldn't want to have a phone tied to my iPod like that. If one dies, you lose it all... Same goes for combo tv/dvd's... don't.
Well the iPhone runs a slimmer version of OSX, so chances are it can run some version of Linux. And unless the processors are custom made for the iPhone, there is a kernel for the architecture. The only real problem is getting drivers for the multitouch interface.
