Dive in head first

What is that?

Got a lesson this morning from a co-worker on Macs in general. They got a bunch of 'G' stuff but its already old hat. The new monsters are all Intel-based (hence the 'i' prefix) machines and this is required for iPad/iPhone development. Guess I haven't strayed that far from the path of light and goodness.
Conference attendance is official. Got signed up for a cool $1000 of the companies cash. Best part is MysteryPerson from the other group is going with - awesome developer! Only the best can happen now.
Out to the bookstore on lunch. Found a couple of things at Barnes & Noble (see refs) that look promising. The goal here is to figure out what it is that I don't know, then rework from there.
Later this evening, I find out that I am getting a new iMacBook Pro and iPhone ordered for me today. I saw the specs (i7 core 17inch with a SSD). Should be pretty fun.

REFS:

Cocoa Design Patterns (Book Ref)
Cocoa Design Patterns (on-line)
Cocoa and Objective-C
Cocoa and Objective-C (B&N) There is a 2nd edition (dog on front, not the cat!)
Apple Store

Closing thought(s):

I feel like a kid in a candy store
