iPhone Terminology: Goodbye "iPhone Optimized"
Because of the iPod Touch, we can no longer say a website is iPhone optimized because the iPhone no longer has a monopoly on touch-screen, Safari web browsing. Bloggers are starting to use the ugly phrase mobileSafari interface. Hopefully, something better comes along.
The grammar of tech changes as quickly as its hardware and software elements. The phrases iPhone optimized or iPhone friendly were correct usage for a whole two months. Now they will slowly dribble out of existence, surviving only in outdated websites and Google caches.
