I think in ~5 years, after all of the fine details shake out and 3rd party app stores are common across the globe, it will be very exciting to be an indie iOS developer. Open source or demo or hobby apps really don't exist on iOS because the barrier to usage is too high (dev must upload to App Store, or user must compile from source / get an .IPA & sign w/ an Apple Developer Certificate, or convoluted sideloading techniques must be used).
Native terminals & package managers & IDEs... the iPad could turn into an amazing development machine, despite Apple's best efforts to the contrary.
