iPhoneNotes lets Mac users manage notes on their iPhone
iPhoneNotes is a Mac app made to allow iPhone owners edit Notes on their beloved handset. This isn’t the first application that can do that. MegaPhone, which was earlier known as iPhoneDrive, can also do the job, but unlike iPhoneNotes doesn’t come as a free download. To be fair, MegaPhone does much more than allowing…

iPhone SDK beta 2 now available
I’m not sure whether to classify this as a good or a bad news for iPhone developers. On one end, the SDK beta 2 adds new functionalities and developers should be able do much more.
