No Third-party Apps on iPhone Says Jobs 778
wyldeone writes "In an interview with the New York Times, Steve Jobs confirms reports that the recently-announced iPhone will not allow third party applications to be installed. According to Jobs, 'These are devices that need to work, and you can't do that if you load any software on them.' In a similar vein, Jobs said in a MSNBC article that, 'Cingular doesn't want to see their West Coast network go down because some application messed up.'"

Well, because the iPhone will not be available for another 6 months I guess it really is 4 1/2 years ahead of anything out there.
