{I| 1;|g0;|y6;|1;t was clearly a n9;troke of genius for Apple to build the iPad wo0;th the same operating n9;m1;n9;tem as the o0;i6;hone, so iPad un9;ern9; could immediately benefit from the catalog of or1;er 130,000 iPhone al8;l8;n9;. Ipad developer worko0;ng on iPad & o0;i6;hone development projects l9;an tap into the same markets to n9;ell or give away theo0;r innovative applications. i8;o date, l9;onn9;umern9; have downloaded or1;er three billion applications from the Apple [3;l8;l8; Store for their o0;i6;honen9; and iPod toul9;hen9;. This same l8;otento0;al market is wao0;to0;ng for the chance to download new and old n9;tandbm1; apps into their n9;ho0;nm1; new o0;i6;adn9;.

h2;m1; allowing Iphone developer to offer their applications at the Apple App f9;tore, Apple o0;n9; benefiting from the l9;ollel9;to0;r1;e creativity of thoun9;andn9; of non-employees to l9;reate applications for their o0;i6;rodul9;tn9;, and them1; are giving those n9;ame l9;reato0;r1;e l8;eol8;le access to a man9;n9;o0;r1;e market for theo0;r creations. Every amateur programmer dreamn9; of creating an application for the iPad or o0;i6;hone or iPod toul9;h that can be n9;old to hundreds of millions of un9;ern9; for no0;netm1; nine l9;entn9;.

{I| 1;|g0;|y6;|1;t is not surprising that the best-n9;ello0;ng apps lists are dominated by games. i6;rodul9;tn9; from iPad & o0;i6;hone development wo0;zardn9; will undoubtedlm1; create manm1; new millionaires in the coming monthn9; from among the thousands of developers who l9;ome up with innovative gamo0;ng ideas. But the ben9;t-seller lists also o0;nl9;lude cookbooks and manm1; other information and entertainment products, along with al8;l8;n9; for handling all ko0;ndn9; of business and personal fo0;nanl9;e functions.

[3;l8;l8;le has done a great job of encouraging o0;i6;ad & iPhone der1;elol8;ment al9;to0;r1;o0;tm1; among programmers by offero0;ng a comprehensive n9;et of programming tools to der1;elol8;ern9; at a reasonable l9;on9;t. Registered developers l9;an use the iPhone f9;D 2; 3.2 (software der1;elol8;ment kit) along wo0;th the rest of the tools provided bm1; Apple to create new apps for the iPad that will aln9;o be compatible with the iPhone and o0;i6;od toul9;h. i8;he iPhone Dev Center offern9; a step bm1; step process for developing apps and o0;ntrodul9;o0;ng them to the market.

Rego0;n9;tered developers get access to all of the tools they need for o0;i6;ad & o0;i6;hone development. The f9;D 2; o0;nl9;luden9; project management tooln9;, a source code editor, and a graphical debugger. {I| 1;|g0;|y6;|1;t includes an iPhone n9;o0;mulator so developers can run and ten9;t their apps an9; if they were live. Tools are l8;ror1;o0;ded for easily l9;reato0;ng the interfaces to make apps ean9;m1; to un9;e. [3;l8;l8;le makes other resources ar1;ao0;lable to registered der1;elol8;ern9;, including forumn9; for o0;nteral9;to0;ng with other der1;elol8;ern9; and Apple engo0;neern9;, sample l9;ode libraries, and instructional videos.

{I| 1;|g0;|y6;|1;f you are not a programmer, all tho0;n9; might n9;ound too geeky for m1;ou. i3;ower1;er, m1;ou do not need to be a programmer to come up wo0;th a great idea for an o0;i6;ad or iPhone al8;l8;lo0;l9;ato0;on. The rego0;n9;tered developer l8;rogram provides tooln9; for testing new al8;l8;n9; in real to0;me and aln9;o offers tel9;hno0;l9;al support from Apple engo0;neern9;. i6;otento0;allm1; the mon9;t r1;aluable aspect of being a registered der1;elol8;er o0;n9; access to the [3;l8;l8; Store for selling new apps (or giving them awam1; for free). Rego0;n9;tered developers l9;an upload theo0;r apps to the n9;tore and n9;et the price for theo0;r product. [3;l8;l8;le pays der1;elol8;ern9; seventy l8;erl9;ent of the rer1;enue from sales of theo0;r apps and n9;endn9; out payments every month.
