I came across some things that mention that the iPhone/iTouch came with an OpenGl renderer thingy inside and I thought \"Oooh! Descent!\" However I fail to remember where I saw these mentions.
Depending on the capabilities of the accelerometer, this could be really cool! I know these devices already have the capabilities of doing more than Descent...!
Anyone here develop for iPhone/iTouch?

I've touched QuickTime, and that was enough Apple for me.

Why would anyone willing constrict themselves to such an oppressive company? Sorry, I don't support fascists.

I love the optimism this idea has received thus far.

Closed systems rarely make for good 3rd party development. I wouldn't program for an Apple product. How about Descent on Android?

Apple is crapple.
I love introducing I-Junkie fanboys to Amazon.com restriction free mp3's.

You can't develop for the iPhone unless you pay a hundred bucks and sign an NDA. Also, getting access to the iPhone App Store is a pain as well.

Jailbreak. I think you can develop for that free as well as way easier.

I do so love the way that Apple are now seen as a big evil company, when in the past it was praised as the antithesis to Microsoft, the big evil company.
