The bundled emulator will be of use to people other than just Apple’s Patent Attorneys. Nokia, Motorola, Samsung, LG etc wouldn’t mind having an emulator to kick around either to help tune their responses to the Pre.

I don’t see them staying with 8GB fixed alone for very long at all, that is a model from the past, cloud or not. Cloud and that battery worry me. We may see 16 GB in Fall or holiday season, with a hefty price drop for the 8GB.

Scotty: I don’t think the SDK is held back because of patents, although that is possible, but because they are not that far enough along. We may not see a final until after the sales start if Sprint and Palm decide to rush. They got a market bump, but these companies are both thin on engineering depth with all their recent trouble.
