You just get access to the "program" web site where you can create your certificates and provisioning profile and register your development devices. You don’t get anything shipped or downloaded.

We did Kirlian photographs BEFORE we began, and will re-do them after 6 days use (5 adult family members). We have completed 4 days, and have digital photos of all pads.Last evening, we decided to "waste" 1 pad and test it just with water- it turned colors, also! How do we get the pads tested? "Dr. Pete" Hi,

I have been doing an experiment with my extended family, while they visited on vacation. We did Kirlian photographs BEFORE we began, and will re-do them after 6 days use (5 adult family members).

We have completed 4 days, and have digital photos of all pads.Last evening, we decided to “waste” 1 pad and test it just with water- it turned colors, also!

How do we get the pads tested?

Apple has some great products, and real momentum, particularly with the iPhone. The only people who are likely to defeat Apple... are Apple people. There are points where Apple has the urge to exert control. This is one; there are others on iTunes, etc. However, a mania for controlling user experience has characterized Steve Jobs since the development of the Mac platform. What stops me from hacking my iPhone and moving code my code onto it? Thousands of apps have been developed for iPhone. All this does is piss people off. What does Steve say - "The internet in your pocket" "My music in the palm of my hand" Where do I want to see my app? In the palm of my hand. Morons. I found the same thing on the Apple support site.

Correct. Your developer ID should be the same as the Apple ID you use to purchase from iTunes, etc. Usually an email account name. It has no relationship to the account name or password on your MacBook. "When I tried to compile to the actual iPhone device (as opposed to the simulator), I still get an error…" That's because you don't have a certificate. Without that (and the iPhone 1.2/Aspen firmware), you can "connect" to a device but can't do much with it. You'll need to wait until you are accepted into the developer program for that. In the meantime, try programming to the simulator. You can test most things there (with some noteable exceptions like 3D graphics which requires device hardware support). “My id for logging in to Apple’s developer web site is different than the id I normally log in to my MacBook with.”

It almost seemed to me based on documentation, that I should be able to run the app on my iPhone (at least in debug mode), but would not be able to distribute it until I got accepted. In my mind, this has not been made crystal clear. @Pete, let’s say I signed up for it not that I’ve been approved.
