develop an app for the iphone

So much for the little guys…got this email today:

Dear Registered iPhone Developer,

Thank you for expressing interest in the iPhone Developer Program. We have received your enrollment request. As this time, the iPhone Developer Program is available to a limited number of developers and we plan to expand during the beta period. We will contact you again regarding your enrollment status at the appropriate time.

Thank you for applying.

Best regards,

iPhone Developer Program

And who knows, maybe by the time they do expand, I’ll have time to actually do something with this? I’ll just tuck my awesome app ideas away for now…

To use the SDK you must be running 10.5.

I am not running 10.5.

When I read about people who have upgraded it seems as though there is a 50/50 risk of things going terribly wrong for unknown reasons.

I really don’t like terribly wrong.

I’m going to give it a week or so while I think about how I feel about the risk, and about the fact that I had already started on the whole RoR thing and should probably focus on one at a time…
