It looks like the rumors were true. While initially it’s hard to imagine that you’d be running iPhone apps on the iPad (due to the screen size difference), Apple has decided that it can be done. So the iPad will be getting ALL the apps that are available for the iPhone, which is great news, considering that there’s a huge catalog of stuff out there for the iPhone. You’ll be able to run the apps in its current (smaller) size, though it might look a little weird, floating in the center of the screen, or it can be maximized to fill the iPad’s display. After developers spend a little time modifying their apps, the app will also be able to take advantage of the much larger display of the iPad. The iPhone SDK now supports development for the iPad, and the best part is that they’re releasing it today, so if you’re planning on updating your app, you can probably get cracking right away.
