iphone innoyance

Well, I think like a lot of people, the initial burst of excitement ran into some hidden limits to the sdk.

I think an issue for many people is going to be the sandboxing, its not that I want to access every last file throughout the device.

Do we all have to write sync solutions to get our own data back and forth? Thats a bit annoying, apple must have a better way we could do this.

I dont mind the background app thingy, tho I think there is a case for a background stack that calls every n minutes to service low level info. But I think we all know why its not allowed... but hey, some of us keep our devices plugged in all the time. Couldnt u give us the option of when powered allowing apps to tap into a background cycle stack. hmm. Its not holding me up personally tho.
I guess apple will do their own ichat thingy or aim thingy, that will solve that issue for many.

Perhaps a mechanism to deliver info in via the email could solve some problems for people. or is that a security hole waiting to happen.

Has anyone been accepted as an official beta developer, noone seems to know.

oh well. lots of reading to do.

seems funny being encouraged to use the UIViewController to contain the view as well as the controller code. Roll on the interface builder update asap.

iphone SDK

Well, I can barely contain my excitement, and wrote the obligatory hello world/rich app.

But have you tried registering as a full developer, im still waiting to put it on the real device. I wonder if its not quite finished, that part. surely not.

anyway. my biggest hurdle is nothing to do with iphone dev, its looking for the correct framework and technique for my app. no im not saying what.

having a ball. wish id been able to start with the jailbroken one earlier but at least its not our properly til June. im glad i'm busy, but i wish i had more time.
