The adult industry is really seeing potential in the iPhone and is quickly jumping on the platform. Now Playboy has joined in and they have taken a very important step, coming out with something 'i.' Dubbed, iPlayboy, the new service for the phone is bound to stir things up.

With the eagerly-anticipated Apple iPhone almost here, Playboy.com is celebrating the glorious gadget with the launch of "iPlayboy," a collection of multimedia features designed to turn up the heat on that cool, new phone. iPhone owners may visit Playboy.com to download a free set of twelve sexy non-nude Playmate wallpapers, a separate photo album with twelve additional Playmate photos, a complete 1-hour episode of Playboy Radio's "The Playmate Hour" (SIRIUS Satellite Radio # 198) with hosts Miriam Gonzalez (Miss March '01) and Pilar Lastra (Miss August '04) and a Playboy.com Cyber Girl video, all customized for the Apple iPhone.

"We have always tried to stay ahead of the curve by delivering the fun, sophistication and sexiness of Playboy to our fans on the newest and hottest media platforms," said John D. Thomas, editor of Playboy.com, in the press release. "And with so much buzz surrounding the all-in-one Apple iPhone, we knew we had to develop something specifically designed just for this device."

While the mainstream movie industry already has their foot in the iPhone door through Apple's iTunes Store and its movie offerings, the adult industry has to do things for themselves, but they don't seem to mind. It looks like they see a lot of potential for the little device and are not going to miss out.

Development for the iPhone is turning into a veritable gold-rush and everyone is trying to get in quickly. There are tens of applications out there already and just as many iPhone-ready services, even though the iPhone has not actually shipped.
