I wouldn't read too much into the updated iMac. As far as I can tell, the MacBook Pro has been a somewhat better gaming rig than the iMacs for the last months, which isn't what you'd expect. Really, they're just correcting that oddity in their product lineup. The article may well be spot on in its analysis on the mobile devices. I suspect it will very much come down to how they treat developers. The iPhone in its current incarnation isn't anywhere near the DS or PSP in terms of price point. (DS: €150, PSP: €170, iPhone: €1000) The audience for the games is therefore very different (and presumably smaller) as well. In terms of hardware, the iPhone is (apparently) roughly equivalent to the PSP but with better connectivity. The way to go is to figure out what kinds of games typical iPhone owners play on their other devices, and develop games to that need.
