iPhone SDK

This is the first time that the gaming industry will be writing games purely in Cocoa and Objective-C. Given that a more-or-less fully functional 2D Spore was written in two weeks by EA, maybe this will be the eye opener for the big boy game devs out there that there are serious alternatives to C++ out there. And if the big studios start being sane, the rest of the industry will follow. Oh happy times! :)
