I know objective-c and now I am waiting for my books to arrive. But they still need two weeks to come. So I would like to start with online tutorials. Does someone know any good ones?

Pragmatic Programmer has a screencast set that is suppose to be good. Haven't tried them yet but plan too. There is a free one as well for the Hello World demo.

Stanford also offers their iPhone course material online for free: http://www.stanford.edu/class/cs193p/cgi-bin/index.php

The stanford course is a great place to start. You'll also want to check out AppsAmuck - they recently did an "app a day" project where they put together a simple app every day for 31 days and posted the source code. Makes for a great reference on top of the Apple sample code for figuring out those "how do I do this" type questions.

I'd second the AppsAmuck site as well.

I'm wondering why everyone says the stanford course is good. They only provide powerpoint foils with a very thin level of content. just tags in there, no real info. i guess they only make sens when also hearing what the speaker of that presentation says.
Thanks

It's really only good to get you through that "how the heck do I get started" phase. I think I went though about 1/3 of it before I felt confident enough to be able to really understand the docs and other peoples code.

Jeff LaMarche is always teaching me new things, and he releases fantastic templates on a regular basis. Be sure to check out his OpenGL template, it has become the basis for a set of tutorials I'm writing.
