The value proposition of iPhone has massively changed for the better after today. Apple has fixed all the strategic mistakes they made at the iPhone launch. Before today, iPhone was pretty much a closed device (webapps with too-slow JavaScript notwithstanding) with no Enterprise-class e-mail/calendaring. That was massively limiting. After today, iPhone is an almost totally open device, *with* Enterprise-class e-mail/calendaring. They sky is the limit now in terms of what can be done with iPhone. As is always the case, the devil is in the detail. However, assuming the execution is right, iPhone should start to accelerate pretty soon (and it won't do Mac sales any harm either, as developers start to get excited about developing for iPhone... which requires a Mac).

Cocoa-Touch must have taken a lot of serious background development and taps into several years worth of research done by Apple, the ground work for a whole new eco-system of Touch based hardware. It's game changing stuff for the mobile and former-PDA market! Looks like the 3G iPhone running iPhone OS 2.0 will be <i>the</i> must have computing accessory in the summer, O2 plans where modified and look better, hopefully a full Bluetooth 2.0 implementation to allow wider hardware accessories.
