    Ive been deep into my studying all the coding Xcode cocoa everything for iPhone and how to create a real live working app. The only problem is i have yet to buy a mac, meaning i have no SDK to work with.
    I will though, be purchasing a Mac Pro with in the next couple months, no telling when.

    My app idea, is a great one, one that im overly positive will be bought by the masses when the time comes, only problem once again is no mac.

    I dont know what else to do but turn here for help, possibly a partner, maybe even a team to develop this app along with many others (in the near future)

    Anyways, im not going to let out what my idea is, im only asking for help from someone whit the knowlage to help get this app started, i have the beggining of the coding on paper :( but it needs to be tested, added onto and implmented.

    Whats in it for you? 50-50 split when and if this app goes for sale (price still being configured) Also i will purchase the 99$ SDK software to run, test, and sell the app for you.

    All im asking is to get help started and a possible partner. Let me know via PM if interested!

    We will also be eligible for the 100 million dollar iFund funding, hoepfully to hit it big with this app to develop many others. This could be your future!

    Borrow the money and buy a Mac ASAP.

    If your app sells like you think it will, you'll be able to pay back the loan in no time.

    Haha. It was coming, I look toward to using this app, better cost less then $8 and weigh less then 3mb though, otherwise NO DEAL.

    Ps. Buy a mac, NOW

    There is a reason for such things in business as start up costs. If you are asking this question in the first place I have my doubts on your projections of multi million dollar turnover.

    I am in the opposite position, as I have the resources to mnake the app, and am learing about XCode, Objective-C etc. but no money-making idea...

    Ok, here is a free one. A car diagnostic tool. But more than just reading engine codes, reading shift points and maybe showing a dyno run without actually being on a dyno. Maybe register and log acceleration, ship points and maybe gas mileage. Also being able to log throttle position within a run and being able to play that back on the computer as a video or logged visual file.

    You would need some sort of connection to the car and that would most likely go through the OBD-II port. There are already bluetooth enabled readers that work for the Palm so the actual external hardware exists, you just need to open up the bluetooth and write the software.

    Oh, also being able to make some modifications such as redline or maybe dial in the air/fuel ratio.

    this would be a hot seller with the tuner crowd as well as some mechanics and even the general consumer. Also if you made one for the truck lovers, as I know that power adders and computer readers/diagnosers/reprogrammers for trucks sell like hotcakes.


    Ok, that was a free one. Everyone have at it!
