> I wonder if this project could use JOGL bindings... It wouldn't make much sense. Opengl is for realtime 3d graphics. Here you just output the final rendered image, which is a bitmap.

A more eye-opening challenge would be: no free-open source software for a month, no services using open source software (no sites running on an open source OS or server etc.) and no operating systems which are even partly open source (so no

Have you read at least the titles of the chapters of the book? Or the official Apple documentation ( http://developer.apple.com/safari/ )? http://developer.apple.com/safari/library/samplecode/iPhoneO... http://developer.apple.com/safari/

The book is about developing Web Apps (tailored/optimized for the iPhone) and so no approval process is required. Edit: Please see my reply to the comment below. Also, this is from the preface of the book: Fortunately, there is an altern

It would be nice if each function/macro was linked to its documentation. Of course you can use (doc functionname ) in the repl...

Sorry, I meant 'C'. I've edited the comment. Anyway, IIRC there's still some C++ somewhere (some parts of Core Audio, for instance) and some sample code from Apple itself also uses C++ here and there.

Yes, MacRuby is something slightly different. Still, I would suggest people who are seriously interested in developing for the iPhone to check if plain Objective-C works for them, first. My recipe is: - Objective-C for the minimum necessary

The iPhone APIs are written in Objective-C (some are just plain C) which is a nice language with nice and interesting features. If you have to deal with these APIs anyway, using another language wouldn't change much. You will have to create

The cases are ugly as hell, though. I'd rather build one myself with a nicer case.

It works, but the sound is probably distorted. A better way would be to use the ipod with a dock with a proper line out (the basic dock from Apple has one).

Earphone jacks are for earphones. If you need to send the signal to something else it would be better to buy something with a line level output and connect it to an amplifier.

HyperCard was really cool at the time. Pure genius. I used it to make a full-featured offline mail reader for a BBS I used to frequent in a few hours. Anyone remember offline readers ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offline_reader )? :-)
