Apple is picky about its developer program iPhone certainly, but the Cupertino guys trying to take on board many developers as possible. In iPhone SDK Beta-2 should stand as a piece of evidence of that. The new release provides an Interface Builder, but only available to registered developers now.

I can not believe you why. Do you not think that after
all the fuss with Apple iPhone developer program will send more of its tools with the same crowd? Some of you may remember (probably disapproved devices) that Apple has released several letters to applicants at its iPhone with the developers program ($ 99), informing them that "at this time" they are not Apple material.

"Thank you for expressing interest in the iPhone developer program. We have received your subscription. This time, the iPhone Developer Program is available only in the United States and will be expanded to other countries in the beta testing. We will contact you again against Wash enrollment status at the appropriate time. Thank you for the application, "said Apple email sent to non-US applicants.

Then Apple decided to choose softer words and preserve the hope occur among developers. Eventually, they do not want every rejection of the platform and start hacking Mac OS.

"We have received your subscription. This time, the developer iPhone is available for a limited number of developers, and we plan to expand the programme for a period of beta testing. We will contact you again for the registration of your status at the appropriate time" described in the company's second rejection by e-mail.

Steve Jobs, the head of Apple, describe their initiative in a very careful and open manner, and not hiding any aspects that may subsequently be at a disadvantage developers in the world, large and small. The Director-General officially announced that the program would be available only to "a limited number of developers in its early stages.

Apple has implied that as v2.0 iPhone programmatic approaches, more developers will be taken on board.

New Interface Builder allows integration of graphical components using drag. Since then, the developers only a step from behind Objective-C code created in Xcode.
