Just to Check - Can the SDK Use Dock Connector Accessories?

[Knolly]

I know I know, it's probably been gone over a dozen times, but a search turned up nothing...

So... Can the SDK use accessories plugged into the dock connector? I assume this would be a necessity for non-wifi connected GPS.

In a word? NO!

why do you say no, was it mentioned whether the api for external acces was included

I'm trying to get into the SDK documentation, but the login page is broken so I can't get in. I don't see anything explicit about it in what I've seen in the SDK but there may yet be something hiding in the margins.

Q: Will there be a dock-connector API?

A: The answer given was unclear, looks like you still have to work through the Made for iPhone program, but it's difficult to tell whether there's integration between the SDK and external hardware beyond what's already out there.
