Apple: iPhone Developer Program on Hold. Barry: You Mother @#*)%$’s

April 22nd, 2008

Sorry, but I am still steamed over the whole Developer program.  Needed just one more rant about it…


Well, talk about taking the wind of out your sails. 

Watch the momentum grow:

  1. I jumped in head first, bought an iPhone - hearts beating, new toy, I can touch it and it vibrates…
  2. Downloaded the SDK - WOW, Apple seems to have their shit together, gonna write my first Apple based program since college…
  3. Installed the tools - can’t believe Apple made good tools finally, the simulator looks rockin…
  4. Watched the videos - these are great, why are they all wearing the same tshirt, hope they make more of these…
  5. Read the documentation - ok, not so great, but more than I expected, they seem to be locking down the beta pretty good, why aren’t there more articles…
  6. Wrote my first program - heart is really racing now, I think I can do this, imagine the possibilities…
  7. Ran my app on the simulator - This thing really does rock, I hope it works this great on my phone, can’t wait to make my first commercial app, I am going to be a star at work, chicks will dig me…
  8. Switch the target from simulator to device - What does it mean "provision"?

 

So until they open back up the Developer program which is another friggin $100 I am more than willing to pay, I cant "provision" my friggin iPhone.

 

OY.  Maybe the chicks will dig the simulator?  Hold on while I compile….
