Why isn’t Snow Leopard supported? It was released August 28, 2009, so that’s over a year ago now. And a huge number of mac users have upgraded because the upgrade version only costs £20.

According to the Apple iPhone human interface guidelines, the blue “details disclosure button” that you use on the right of each table view cell should be used to indicate that a secondary function occurs when you press that button vs. pressing anywhere else in the table cell.

You should be using the standard disclosure indicator instead.

Which is why a new UI from scratch should be developed for a tablet. You can’t just shoe-horn an existing GUI into a form factor like the iPad or iPhone, it just doesn’t work.

Worth noting that Apple’s soon-to-be-announced Tablet will be running a version of the iPhone OS, which may be more reason to develop a native application for that platform. Whether it will support Java is still unknown (iPhone does not).

edit: it does not support Java.

The iPhone doesn’t support Java officially (you would need to jailbreak it in order to do so). Steve Jobs doesn’t like Java. iPhone apps must be developed in Objective C which can interface with existing C code with no problems.

So you would have to use the AHNet C code and wrap a nice Cocoa interface around it.

EDIT: did I mention I’m an iphone developer now?

EDIT2: And apple are opening up the specs for using the phone’s usb port with custom hardware, but I’m not sure if getting better audio would be possible/worth it.
