Introduction

iPhone SDK  - by James Reynolds
Apple's iPhone SDK is more than meets the eyes.  Developers are excited because the iPhone's abilities enables them do far more than they thought and the SDK is the gateway.  But something quite unexpected surfaced.  In the name of security, Apple is requiring developers to verify their identity before they can run applications on the iPhone and the SDK limits what apps can do.

James will discuss the implications of the SDK's security features, interesting iPhone and SDK facts, and he will show the iPhone Aspen Simulator.  He'll also show what the iPhone can do with the hacker community's iPhone toolchain and how it differs from Apple's SDK.
