Microsoft could give an unexpected blow in a few days, the annual developer event of its main competitor, Apple. In fact, it could appear alongside Steve Ballmer Steve Jobs to introduce new features in Visual Studio 2010 to enable the Microsoft suite of programming to create native applications for iPhone OS.

Thus, Apple would gain a whole sector of developers could create applications for the iPhone without having to stop using Microsoft’s suite, thus also a way that can be scheduled for the iPhone OS without necessarily having to buy a computer Apple (now, if you want to program an application for the iPhone OS have to use XCode on Mac OS X, unless you use some alternatives such as Gamesalad ).

Microsoft has been present in other Apple keynotes , such as demonstrations of the earlier version of Internet Explorer for Mac OS X or the same version of the Office suite. But of course, the fact that Microsoft is able to present tools for developers to create applications for the competition is another sign that something is changing.
