Earlier this year, Apple unveiled version 3.0 of the iPhone’s operating system; the software will be available for all iPhones and iPod Touches on June 16. During the past few months, app developers have been creating programs that take advantage of the new operating system’s features, and on Monday Apple invited several companies to show off what they’ve built. The demos were amazing, an innovative and exciting counterpoint to Apple’s same-y new hardware. Through these programs, the iPhone becomes something like a universal remote—a device that spices up all kinds of everyday interactions.
