Sun Microsystems is developing a Java Virtual Machine for Apple iPhone and intends to release it in the coming June. Seems like, opening up iPhone SDK to Enterprises turned out to be a really good move by Apple for iPhone users and Apple itself.
JVM on iPhone could bring Games like Harry Potter and Enterprise applications like ERP or CRM, useful applications like MapQuest Mobile and thousands of existing Java based apps.
Above all Java on iPhone means security. Java can bring its SSL Security features to Apple’s platform as well.

If AppleInsider is to be believed, Apple is going to release another product that uses touch technology. AppleInsider says a small team is already began working on this project.
Like the iPhone and iPod Touch, the new device runs on an embedded version of Mac OS X Leopard and will be 1.5 times the iPhone size and sports 720×480 high resolution display. This is not a PDA nor a Tablet. The Size could be somewhere in between. Like always Apple is trying to start a whole new section in the market.
