There’s been a lot of interesting Apple-focused blogging news this week, much of which focuses on what might be happening soon — like a final Mac OS X 10.5.6 update, a MacBook firmware update, and the unleashing of Snow Leopard in early 2009. Still, there are three questions that speak to a broader world and are worth a closer look: Are low-cost apps cheapening the iPhone experience? Will iPhones really make it into Wal-Mart? And what happened to the missing iTunes movies? iPhone developer Craig Hockenberry kicked off controversy when he posted an open letter to Steve Jobs.
