iPhone App to issue parking tickets

Posted by Frank Koehntopp as Blogging

Welcome back!

German software vendor Schelhorn OWiG has created an iPhone application for city clerks to manage parking violations.

Not in the app store yet – and I doubt that it will ever be, it’s hardly a general purpose app.

WHich raises the question: how can VARs sell iPhone apps to customers without going through the app store? What about enterprise applications say, in the financial or military space?

Does Apple offer a way to do that, or will the iPhone be limited to consumer apps?

(Thanks Dirk)

They are turning the iPhone into a bad phone, giving tickets with it.

I agree with you K Gift. They turning a masterpiece into a tool to give fines. But then there are a lot of great things the iPhone has.
