But that's exactly my point. Where I live in the poor south, most kids have iPhones because they are "free" and their parents can't do the math to realize that the monthly fees make it incredibly expensive. But I have yet to see a single local kid who owns or even has access to a mac laptop. (not to mention the $100 for the developer license is a month's rent for some of them.) So as far as they are concerned, it's impossible to develop on their phone.
