I was reading an article based on Mobile Development in 2020 and run into such a pessimistic claim:
"But the economics are a different
story. The ratio of those developers
who will fail is about 90%; they will
simply not make a return on their
investment or make a good enough
living at this," said Mr Laurs.

By Web Application I mean a web site targeted at Safari on the iPhone that can run "off-line" (by using a cache manifest file, JavaScript database, running full screen from an icon on the home screen.)
The user experience as a Web Application is fine once it's installed, so there is no need for it to be native, and potentially, an app d...
I am the owner of a project that uses open source maps for an iPhone 2.0 app. My team and I are debating whether to upgrade to the iPhone 3.0 expose Map APIs, but I suspect that Google and Apple have put restrictions in just the wrong places. What barriers are out there?

Hey all,
looking for some advice on using the experimental sound-engine in cocos2d-iphone v0.8.
What I have done is to create a class called audioManager and house it in the appDelegate so that it is available to the whole application pretty easily. I don't instantiate the class until the splash page has started so it should atleast have...
When I program with OpenGL ES on iPhone OS, I have to use a lot of OpenGL functions. This looks very procedural to me. I wonder if I could make a class called "cube", which will draw an cube if called. Or must all the application code be in one huge scope?

I know you can mix OpenGL ES with UIView somehow but people say it's a bad idea. Does this also apply if...
I'm trying to display text in a UITableView that's a response from a JSON containing something like "Congratulations you just won a prize!", and when I display it in a UITableView the first 9 characters are "corrupted" and display weird symbols.
