NO telephony API. From what I could garner, if an application developer wants to initiate a call, they must drop down to an addressbook API, thereby exiting their application. Also, it's not clear as to how a developer would use SMS (no mention of SMS at all, but I guess the addressbook scenario would work).<br><br>Another area that can cause developers a little grief is that the iPhone and the iPod touch, while they share a lot of code and hardware, aren't exactly the same. One example is the lack some low-level features on the iPod touch that would allow for writing apps that can vibrate the device (haptic feedback). Without an exact match of available features, developers will constantly need to be aware of whats supported by each device.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[AwayBBL]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 7th 2008 7:37AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on iPhone SDK comparison chart]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/03/06/iphone-sdk-comparison-chart/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/03/06/iphone-sdk-comparison-chart/</guid><description><![CDATA[Is there a reason for not showing RIMs SDK?
