Take a look at ASIHTTPRequest, which is a framework that makes it easy to issue POST requests to RESTful services.

EDIT

It looks like you have a JSON object. You can parse JSON into an NSDictionary using json-framework. There are numerous tutorials you can access through Google that explain how to parse JSON with json-framework.

Once you have your NSDictionary of key-value pairs, it is trivial to use ASIHTTPRequest to create a POST HTTP request. The code samples on ASIHTTPRequest's site explain how to create a POST request.

I'm not sure what WCF is, but so long as it understands POST requests, you should be able to use ASIHTTPRequest for talking with it.

Hope this helps.
