Steve Jobs on iPhone hacks "Jobs acknowledged that third-party developers have started to produce several intriguing, yet unofficial iPhone applications. He said Apple is looking at some of them closely, especially those that don't require a connection to the Internet. It's likely that those applications would be the first of any to receive an official endorsement from Apple, according to Jobs' comments, as those that require Internet access could threaten the 'high standard' of experience customers have come to expect with the iPhone."

There are some great 3rd party apps available for the iPhone, I have a few that I use daily. A platform is only as good as the software that runs on it. Hopefully Apple will realize that adding support for 3rd party apps will make the iPhone that much more appealing to an even larger audience. There's only so much you can do with the Stock and Weather app before it gets old ;)
