Description: Just like any good programmers we decided to bite this off the same day Apple lifted the NDA even faced with the time constraints. Needless to say the first app will be VERY simple, however it does demonstrate some stuff I stumbled on the first time I started coding against the iPhone SDK.
The app is "Minutes to Midnight" it is simply a countdown of the time left I have to finish this app before tomorrow :). This idea came from my friend Chris Craft who committed (and completed!) 30 day of Windows Mobile development.
To get started fire up xCode and
* Click: File->New Project.
From the "New Project" dialog
* Select: iPhone OS->Applications-> View-Based Application
* Name It: I named mine "MinutesToMidnight"
This project already has a UIView we that will be the main view of or application. I imagine a count down looking like a plastic alarm clock which of cource counts backwards to zero. Let make our text have a red LED look and our back
