Just three weeks after releasing the iPhone 3.0, Apple has now made available the beta version of  iPhone SDK 3.1 (build 9M2736a) for developers on its Apple Developer Connection site.

According to some sources, the new beta has MMS enabled by default, although it’s unclear whether it works with AT&T at the moment. Apple has also included 15 new OpenGL tools for 3D modeling and graphics, which will essentially help game developers.

The new SDK also includes VideoController and VideoPicker APIs which now allow the user apps to call up the Video editing UI. The new UI allows the user to save a copy of the ‘original’ file after they have edited and produced a cut-version.

Palm Pre vs iPhone 3GS is the story of how Apple monopoly in touchscreen cellular phones is being challenged by vendors who try to provide competition for iPhone 3GS hardware and software.

Palm Pre introduced an intuitive interface of “cards” which greatly reduces the effort in multitask environment – and a break from iPhone 3GS old icon based interface. The LED flash in Palm Pre is a big advantage over iPhone 3GS if you are fond of photography.
