Hello,

I'm not very good in the code for objective-c but i've learn java and sort and i know it's kinda different.

Questions i would like to brought up is:

1. Between creating the database on iPhone itself using SQLite or accessing a database online through web services.

2. Any tutorial to recommend?

3. Do i really need to purchase the licence key US$99 in order to upload to my iPhone for testing?

4. Can the SDK simulator itself connect to online database?

5. i'm currently using SDK 3.1.3 due to my MAC OS X is 10.5.8 and should i upgrade to snow leopard as us there any good stuff that i would miss on the iOS SDK 4

NOTES: my application would be something like

DBS / citibank SG / foursquare that require login and sorts.

I have 4 more months before i need to hand up this as my final year project.

I would be appreciated if anyone can give me a little help.
