Excellent beginners tutorial
While this book is not as comprehensive as some have wanted, I found it to be a nice beginners tutorial to writing iPhone applications.

Neither book is a good starting point
Both the current books on iPhone development fail to provide an “introduction” to development as I’d call it.

Great book! Really helped me get the concepts straight
Full disclosure: I know the author online. But we get in occasional fights and I don’t have any interest in inflating his score.
