>From what I can see, Apple has a more developer-focussed approach to deliver a few OS updates a year and ship betas to developers ahead of the release. This make developer's life easier on some levels (less versions to support, more stability) and harder on some others (bugs won't be fixed for a couple of months), so this is harder for Apple because the QA has to be a lot tighter. And they certainly failed in iOS 4.0 which was really buggy. But it seems to me that Apple certainly increased the speed in which they add features to the OS - after 3.0, there just was 3.1 before 4.0 (if you leave out the iPad-only 3.2). Now we have 4.1 and 4.2 and soon 4.3, each adding significant features. The wonders of competition! :-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
