Some good, some not so much&#8230;<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Let&#8217;s get the bad news out of the way first.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The new iOS SDK is no longer free.  That&#8217;s right, XCode 4 now costs $5.00 on the AppStore.  Oh, and it only runs on Snow Leopard.  There seem to be a few places where you can get older versions of XCode for free, but Apple seems to be sweeping this into a corner.  Oh well.  I will say though that the new XCode is worth the five bucks.  It has a lot of new features that make development much easier.  So if you have Snow Leopard you should certainly drop the dough and get XCode 4.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>On the upside we have two bits of very good news.  <\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The first is that Apple is really pushing resources for folks to develop Apps for iOS.  One example of this is that they have compiled <a href=\"http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/WebObjects\/MZStore.woa\/wa\/viewMultiRoom?fcId=439695735\">a whole page of iTunes U and podcast resources<\/a> for development, marketing and business management.  There&#8217;s some really good stuff here including full courses for iOS development from Stanford and UCDavis.  It&#8217;s worth your time.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>And finally, this Fall Apple will be releasing iOS5.  Check out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/ios\/ios5\/gallery.html#video-ios\">this video<\/a> on the new features to be introduced.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since my last post on this topic a few things have changed.
