iPhone OS soon on Apple TV and MacBook computers
Apple has released a job that is searched in an “Engineering Manager (Platform Bring-Up)” for the headquarters in Cupertino. This executive will lead the Core Platform team and the team with the iPhone operating system OS to port to additional platforms.
Exactly what the company intends, assumes the job of course, not apparent, but the detailed description text to the requirements of the job contains enough information to provide food for speculation. Applicants must bring experience with ARM-based chips. Such chips are used in many mobile devices such as the use, including the one presented in last month iPad.
Maybe Apple wants to use the operating system on Apple TV in the future; a new version of Apple TV has been around for a while, rumours. Perhaps, but Apple is also planning a mini-version of the MacBook Air with iPhone OS. That is not so far-fetched, Google’s mobile operating system Android is now so well on net books use. Why Apple should be limited iPad for devices of this size on the keyless? Whether on-board computer for vehicles, radio alarm or home automation, the technology blog is no conceivable purpose of use omitted for the iPhone OS just somehow inappropriate.
On the other hand, it is unlikely that Apple is even before the sales launch of the new Apple iPad decisions on devices with iPhone OS. How successful is the iPad, will largely determine whether venturing Apple with its iPhone OS into new areas. Basically, it gives meaning, however, the iPhone OS to bring on more platforms. The large number of apps and the large number of app developers offer the company from Cupertino good starting position.
