Is iAd built into iOS 4?

[tackey123]

When Steve Jobs was giving his speech about iAds he said that it was built right into iOS 4, did he literally mean that the ads were in iOS 4? Would that mean we would have to wait until the next update for new ads to show up besides the Nissan leaf ad (only shows up on iPods registered with someone 17 and older).

No, he meant that you can code to add iAds to your app, but only is apps that run on iOS4. Meaning the actual ads are served from Apple, but not built into the phone. The APIs are in the iOS 4 SDK.

Okay, Thanks!

When do you think they will be adding more ads?
