The big news today is that Apple has finally dropped the non-disclosure agreement affecting iPhone software. The change affects only released iPhone software. The NDA was severely restricting communication about Apple's iPhone software, development, even preventing the release of tutorials and books, so many people are happy to see it go. Developers should expect to see a lot more useful material coming out on how to build iPhone apps now that the NDA is history.
Many people were frustrated with the NDA, since normally restrictions are dropped once software is released. In this case, many people were expecting to see the NDA dropped after the 3G iPhone with 2.0 software became available. When it was not, it put an unexpected crimp in many people's plans, including book publishers.
