Learning to make an iPhone App: Entry 1

Taking a break from all this GTD stuff.  

Like many, I also dream of of making an iPhone app one day.  With my colleagues encourage me as well, I finally got myself together and embarking on this journey.  

TUAW had some nice posts to get me started:

• Starting out with Objective-C
  
• Dear Aunt TUAW: How do I get started programming for the iPhone?
  

Finally I narrowed down to three books:  

1. Programming in Objective-C 2.0
   I'm 4-5 chapters into the book.  So far it seems comprehensive and the book assumes you don't have prior knowledge of the C language.  
2. Learn Objective-C on the Mac
   I'm also 4-5 chapters into this book.  It assumes you have prior knowledge of C, but its written in a rather easy to understand style.
3. Beginning iPhone Development
   Same as the previous two books, I got to about 4 chapters in.  This book recommends having read the previous book before reading this one.  Even though I don't have Objective-C down yet, the first few chapters does a very good job of explaining the parts and components of an iPhone app.  

I don't have much real programming experience.  I did some web programming with Cold Fusion a few years ago and took an intro to computer science class in my college days.  So far, I have to say, it's not easy.  

Some of the concepts are still hard to grasp for me and I haven't got used to the syntax either.  I still focused on trying to get the basics down with object oriented programming and Objective-C, and reading two different books on Objective-C seems to help.  If there is a concept you missed or can't understand, you can go to the other book to see how it's presented.

I'll work bit by bit and hopefully things will start to make sense.  Thanks for reading!
