I think clickteam should investigate the possibility of adding IPod/IPhone support for MMF2. Apple just opened up the SDK of the IPhone and IPod and they recently opened up the market to games and other applications. I think a MMF for the IPhone and IPod touch would be awesome and open up a whole new market for us game designers. The IPod Touch is very capable of being used as a gaming platform as I own one myself and things such as the tilt sensor or even the touchscreen itself can be used as gaming controls. The IPod can handle very cpu intensive applications and even nintendo DS quality 3D graphics. What do ya say?
Interestingly the iPod Touch and iPhone are more or less identical in power to a Dreamcast, much more capable than a DS or PSP. AFAIK the SDK is Mac only since it forms the Xcode tools. I'm not sure how Clickteam could get games exported to the iPod/iPhone.

The IPhone/Touch has a full SDK though and the IPhone is becoming very popular as it becomes cheaper to obtain. Id expect
progamming support for the IPhone to be way easier and more appealing than progamming apps for small screen cell phones. My Ipod
has about 30 different apps on it now since the AppStore's release a week ago. Apple basically turned the IPhone/IPod into a very
useful pocket PC. About the Apple SDK, clickteam should put a project on their product line if exporting isnt a very appealing option.
Have you downloaded the free 360degree picture viewer? Its awesome

Talking about clickteam doing anything overly productive is more or less a waste of time; especially doing so here, with members that have no power, or much of a drive to push clickteam to make changes. Go make a topic about what you ate for breakfast.

Ex Dee I was just talking about this to my brother. He doesn't seem to understand that I can't just put my games on the ipod touch he's about to get. I think he said something about Java... I don't know whether they have java, but he kept saying, "People have cracked it. You can make stuff for it!" and still wouldn't understand when I said, "Yea. People who can program."
