iPhone 3G, New Mobile Apps Debut at Apple WWDC 2008

For users of the first-generation iPhone, the iPhone 2.0 software will be available as a free update via iTunes July 11.

Platform Development
As far as development for the iPhone platform goes, Apple Monday announced that downloads of its iPhone Software Development Kit have topped the 250,000 mark since the SDK's launch in early March. The SDK includes APIs and tools for creating iPhone-native applications.

During the keynote address at WWDC, several developers took the stage to show off new and upcoming applications designed for the iPhone, ranging from adventure and arcade-style games to medical imaging software.

Macworld has an excellent blow by blow roundup of the keynote address, including images of new applications for the iPhone. This coverage can be found here.
