Is Apple Planning New iPhone OS Devices?
Is Apple considering its iPhone OS for products other than the iPhone and iPad? A new job ad by the Cupertino, Calif. electronics maker seeking an Engineering Manager suggests such an expansion could be in the works. The manager would be tasked with leading “a team focused on bring-up of iPhone OS on new platforms.”
Such a team would be responsible for “low-level platform architecture, firmware, core drivers and bring-up of new hardware platforms,” according to the job listing posted last week and first spotted by Computerworld.
Potential candidates for migrating to the ARM-based iPhone OS may be AppleTV, the MacBook Air, and the Mac Mini. Already, ARM chips made by the Apple-owned PA Semiconductor makes chips for the yet-to-ship iPad tablet, the iPhone and iPods.
