iPhone OS 3.2 beta 3 for developers

Apple released last night the third beta of the SDK for iPhone OS 3.2. It is now possible to develop universal applications, compatible with both the iPhone and iPad, thus allowing an application to get the maximum capacity of the terminal on which it operates.

Apart from other changes involving only the developers, the beta 3 has revealed some interesting news. The simulator of the iPad is integrated in the SDK and the developers to test their applications.

The SDK 3.2 beta 3 documentation indicates that the iPad finally uses the same family of graphics chips as the iPhone and iPod touch. Open GL ES will work the same way on every Apple touchscreen terminal.

VideoLAN Movie Creator – VLMC

Today, good news comes from the developers of the famous VLC video player. They intend to launch a new software called VideoLAN Movie Creator (VLMC), which will simply be an editing software.

When we talk about the VLC free software, we can only hope that they develop a product of equal quality. In my opinion, we have to wait for a few months before the arrival of a fully functional software.

Also a pre-release version of VLMC will be available soon Linux, Windows and Mac, so stay tuned !
