You have the imagination to perceive that your iPhone can be a server in some contexts, just as it can be a client in other contexts. I too am unclear why Apple has failed to see that, in the long run, users will take advantage of existing & user-controlled technologies as much as they can. There is a reason many desktops & laptops run a Webserver, there is a reason so many people jailbreak their iPhones, and there is a reason I have server software on my iPhone. The locus of control is with me & you as users, the technology is ubiquitous & easy to use, and the imagination for innovation is mine & yours. <em>jeffs</em> This is a great example of the context & perception issue I talked about in a recent Center for the Handheld Web blog article.

I must confess that I'm a twitterer who thought "just what is Mark smoking, here?" but of course, there's *lots* of reasons to have //localhost. Thank you for the clue.
