Not the correct style/content for a development book - [23 Feb 2010]
The content of the book is basic and is OK as an introduction, however there are a few things I don't like about this book: 1) Some key steps are usually missing or not highlighted enough. For example, in order to dismiss the keyboard on the "ReturnToMe...

Good starter book with a few rough edges... - [25 Oct 2009]
Long ago, in a life far far away, I was a C programmer. I learned C, caught onto the beginnings of C++ and then changed my career path to that of an Oracle DBA. Now, I find myself interested in Objective-C programming. Go figure. I picked up Neal's book...

The worst kind of tutorial possible - [26 Sep 2009]
The first hundred of pages are devoted to all sorts of theory and general considerations, I was struggling with sleep when reading them. I never saw that amount of fluff in any other iPhone development book. The author believes that creating a "Hello ...

Excellent 'Paint-by-Numbers' Overview - [23 Sep 2009]
I'm not an expert in Objective-C or in object oriented software programming. Following this book with step by step interactions with the content gave me the confidence to dream how to build my own iPhone application, which is something I plan to do. Overall...

Could be much better - [21 Sep 2009]
Although I have some experience in programming, I found the book a bit confusing in the first part. In the following parts it improves a lot, but some damage on your motivation is already done.

Great! - [12 Aug 2009]
This book teaches a lot. It's great for beginner developers. If you are thinking of buying this buy it. Unless you know a good deal of developing for the iPhone. This is just the basics.

Yeah, not really for "dummies". - [06 Aug 2009]
This book is horrible if you are just getting started with iPhone application development and Objective-C. I bought it after flipping through all the other iPhone for beginner books thinking it had more explainations after each step. Little did i realize...

Decent intro but get the "Beginning .." book instead - [30 Jun 2009]
In an effort to simplify the material, the author strings out explanations too much. This was actually counter-productive for me. Also, this covers SDK 2.1 instead of 3.0 which came out in June 2009. Instead get the "Beginning iPhone 3 Development" book...
