I think the word "marketecture" is important here ;-).  iPhone's OS X  
is "that which can create a buzz among Apple pundits"; without an SDK  
and a way to deploy code, it doesn't matter whether it's an ARM port  
of Darwin, WindowServer and the rest or a rebadged  
AmigaAnywhere...it's a box, and the thing on that box has been  
described as OS X by a bloke from Apple.

Cheers,
Graham.
