"""You can hardly say the name "Apple" without signing an NDA."""
This is so true. The iPhone is out. Everybody can (and could) become an iPhone developer and download the SDK.
Yet, developers are still not allowed to talk to each other about programming on the iPhone. Not in public forums. But also not even in person with you colleague or friend who also downloaded the SDK.
In my opinion they are taking it too far. Way too far. I just don't see the point of this NDA.
- neovive 18y agoYou can't even view the iPhone development Getting Started tutorials without paying $99 to become part of the developer program.
- ralphc 18y agoNot true, at least not recently. With just an Apple ID (the same one I use for iTunes, etc.) I was able to download the iPhone SDK, look at tutorials, build apps and run them on the simulator. I haven't tried to put anything on an actual device, I don't have one yet, but the promised-in-the-future ad-hoc distribution should make that doable for me and my family.
