BTW: Is there a market in 3rd party libraries for the iPhone?

  Not that large - most iPhone devs are poor and value there time less than money. But I think if you move away from "library" towards "I will solve your problem around X so you don't even have to think about it" there will be more people like me willing to pay. I didn't write my own analytics because I enjoy doing it - I needed the data but I didn't want to give up all my data to admob/mobclix etc to party on, and I wanted data to be high-granular. Here is one guy selling stuff: http://www.drobnik.com/touch/ http://www.drobnik.com/touch/ I planning to buy his calendar control because Apple can't be arsed to give me theirs and I don't want to spend weeks writing my own.

    Thanks, 3rd party library are a healthy sign for a platform. I was thinking they go partially towards the fears in 3.1.1, of a layer, potentially cross-platform, and out of Apple's control. But I guess if they are iPhone-exclusive, it's less of a concern.
