Mono touch 101

MonoTouch allows .NET developers to create native applications in C# that can be compiled to run on the iPhone. It provides a .NET layer on top of the iPhone programming layer, Cocoa Touch, using ahead-of-time compilation to the native iPhone binaries rather than just-in-time compilation. Developing with MonoTouch requires an Intel Mac, the iPhone SDK, the Mono framework, MonoDevelop IDE, and the MonoTouch SDK.

Editor's Notes
- Spanish for MonkeyCreated by Novell for .NET implementation on other op systemsCan run on OSX, Linux, Wii, Playstation 3, even Windows.
- Uses modified version of Mono framework to develop against and then runs a linker on the application code to cut down the size of overall code in your appThe Linker:Because you can not re-use libraries in iPhone, every time you put a version of MonoTouch app on to a device, you are also installing the Mono framework.Due to this linker tool goes through the Mono framework and removes the code, your app is not using.Even an update to Mono framework comes out, your application will continue to run.Keeps the size down. If an app is under 20mb, Apple lets you download by 3G otherwise, you need wifi conn.
