I am going to propose a vocabulary for thinking about the building blocks of mobility applications in the iPhone/iPod touch universe, a vocabulary based largely on an analysis of the composite set of existing functions already supported in these devices. My goal is two-fold. One is to attempt to connect the dots for would-be developers thinking about how they can emulate the best practices, services and workflows that have emerged around this platform. Two is to hopefully spotlight how Apple can provide maximize leverage for third-party developers by exposing well-defined APIs and providing tools around these function sets.
