Comment on Apple pulls the Van Pelt maneuver on developers by Tom

Apple’s behavior towards developers and 3rd parties has, of late, been very … confusing. From the outside, it looks like a dysfunctional relationship in which Apple is Ike and the developers are Tina.

Maybe they’re trying to stem the tide of inevitable iPad Apps ‘49ers, just there for the Gold Rush to make a quick buck with a half-assed gew-gaw.

Personally, I’m holding out for a more open version of the iPad, possibly with Android, though a trimmed Win7 could work.

Apple are amazing at execution and design and, most especially, marketing, but they vacillate between loving and hating their 3rd parties, which makes me wary of spending ANY time researching iP[hone|od|ad] development. I’d love to buy in, but I don’t want a black eye.

Sorry, perhaps it’s a North American reference.

In the Peanuts comic strip, Lucy Van Pelt always pulls the football away from Charlie Brown just as he is about to kick it.
