StyleTap Announces Plans for iPhone Version
StyleTap is officially planning to introduce a version of StyleTap CrossPlatform for the Apple iPhone smartphone and the iPod touch. As we are still working on a number of issues, such as where and how it will be marketed and sold, we expect to have further information available in early July 2008.
StyleTap personnel will also be attending the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco, CA from June 9-13, and will be available to meet with mobile application developers who want to learn more about StyleTap for the Apple devices. Contact us to set up an appointment.
See the news release for the full details.
We know from the constant emails about the iPhone version, that there is a great deal of interest out there. Stay tuned to this blog and when we're ready to go with a beta test program, we'll tell you about it here.
Cheers,
The StyleTap Team

Status of StyleTap iPhone Experimental Version
Our recent posting of a video showing an experimental version of StyleTap running on an iPod Touch has been viewed over 700,000 times and generated a great deal of feedback and interest in a version of StyleTap for the Apple iPhone. We were particularly struck by the number of people who commented that the ability to run their Palm applications would definitely make them consider purchasing an iPhone.
Apple subsequently released their much-anticipated Software Development Kit (SDK), which answered some questions but also introduced some potential legal roadblocks which could impede our efforts to make a StyleTap iPhone/iPod Touch version available through official Apple channels. We are continuing to make good technical progress with the iPhone "experimental" version and are exploring various ways to bring it to market. We encourage everyone interested in seeing a version of StyleTap for the iPhone to let Apple know of your interest by sending feedback at http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html.
