iPhone Duo: The apps weren’t ready, but the market was
Early reviews of Apple's iPhone Duo criticized the lack of third-party apps, but this criticism proved premature. Developers timed app launches for the device's general availability on October 23 rather than for review cycles. Apple subsequently announced over 50 upcoming apps for the device, including major services like Netflix and Microsoft Office. The Omni Group and other developers also released iPhone Duo-specific updates.
