iPhone applications development

IPhone Apps development becomes available! As expected, Apple introduced a set of tools for the iPhone game development (so-called iPhone SDK). This is a remarkable event for Apple. The iPhone apps development kit has been shown at the press conference that took place at company headquarters in Cupertino (USA). The head of the company Steve Jobs was among members. He assured all the audience that the proposed software package, which today can be downloaded from the official Apple site, is very similar to the one used by IPhone apps developers of the company itself.

Downloading SDK is not free. Those who wish to acquire it must participate in a program of IPhone Apps development Program Standard, or Enterprise (card 99 or $ 299 per year, correspondingly), but they a have chance to return all the investments: the presentation of SDK was announced to establish a fund for particularly interesting projects investment. The size of this fund will be 100 million dollars, which is quite reasonable Progress: Apple should support the independent IPhone Apps developers to rapidly expanding set of programs for the iPhone. By the way, you can only sell the complete iPhone apps through the official iTunes Apple Store. The download of the application on the iPhone is performed through App Store Wi-Fi.

According to representatives of Apple, author of the program defines the price of its completed iPhone Apps development; they also transfer 70% of sales to the iPhone Apps Developer. The remaining 30% the company keeps as payment for the SDK operation and organizational costs. If the software is offered for free, the money for his promotion will not be taken by Apple: freeware in the iPhone Apps Development category will be transferred to users without paying additional fees. By the way, applications created by the iPhone Apps independent developers, can be run on iPod Touch, but there will also be a need to update the firmware player.
