Why give away an iPad when Embarcadero doesn't offer development tools for it?
Why? Because iPads are cool and very useful. We have demoed Delphi Prism on the iOS platform. We are looking into the feasibility of providing tools that are compatible with Apple’s IOS developer license.
Odd…my comment seems to have disappeared…
Try again. Your last comment came through but haven't seen any others.
I had made a comment, a couple of days ago, asking why you don't push the ExoPC instead of the iPad. All the tools Embarcadero develops today compile to run effortlessly on an ExoPC, which runs Windows 7. It's a serious piece of very promising hardware, and could push Delphi projects (for instance) to run touch apps in a workfloor environment. We know these devices tend to trickle down to the home after a while.
sounds interesting, will fwd to the Delphi team
