I had a similar idea a few months ago but got caught up with other stuff and never moved forward with it. I do own appamonth.com if you’re interested in using it. Shoot me an email to discuss.

For all BYU students who are interested in something like this, a club at Brigham Young University has been working with Apple to set something like this up. More information, including rules and prizes, are available on our website:

Definitely count me in, sounds like a ton of fun. This would also be a great opportunity to get a ton of handy iPhone frameworks out there to share around for common things. I’ve been contemplating making a Things-style sync framework recently… hmm.

Anyway, October sounds like a great time, a lot of devs are college students, so give ‘em a month to settle in before springing it on them. :P

I like the idea a lot. For someone like me who does his iPhone development on nights and weekends, a month is a good time period.

I think ypu’ll find a month is too long. Most people can’t commit to a contest of that length and you’ll find very few people taking part.

Ironcoder was more successful when it was a short weekend project.

Uh yeah… Ironcoder…

Ironcoder has already had an iPhoen contest too (live at C4).
