What's sad about that is that the iPhone is a lot harder to develop for, so it will get a lot less people interested. Rather than just opening up the "iPhone-Basic" app and fiddling around for a bit with an exceedingly simple and easy-to-learn language, you have you get a Mac, get registered, get XCode, and spend quite a while learning Objective-C and Cocoa, and to actually draw anything on the screen, probably OpenGL ES as well.

The learning curve was almost insurmountably steep, and in the two years since I've found web programming to be a much better use of my time. You can build an iPhone app, but what are you going to connect it to? For me a website, but how do you build a website? The meandering process has been a lot of fun, but I don't know how one could start with iPhone programming. By the way, I'm 31.
