Apple made a number of major announcements today around the iPhone. Techcrunch live blogged the event if you want to see all of the details. But if you want a summary of the important parts, read on. Two things happened worth noting. First, the iPhone is no longer just a really fun phone/Internet device.  It now supports Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, meaning it can hold its own against any other business device out there (more on that below). Second, Apple gave more details on its previously announced software development kit that will allow third parties to get their software onto the iPhone. From the demo’s shown today, developers by the thousands will be clamoring to jump on board. (http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/03/06/iphone-20-enterprise-ready-developer-ready/ 3/6)

Viewers of Comedy Central’s “Lewis Black’s Root of All Evil,” which debuts March 12, will be able to participate in the show’s debates on evil-mongering, thanks to a text-messaging deal with  Alltel Wireless. It’s the first deal for Comedy Central involving text-message voting and, according to David Sacks, the show’s co-creator, the innovation will give the audience “a personal stake in the series.”  (The Hollywood Reporter  3/5)
