So if I was making apps just for myself I can get the SDK for $99 (non-reoccuring fee) and basically run my app on my ipad as if I were "testing" it? And if in the future I wanted to put some on apps store I could…"
C. A. Beninati replied to C. A. Beninati's discussion iPad Classroom Management and Custom Educational Apps"Pianodemon,
There are essentially 2 ways to distribute a native (Objective-C) application for use on iDevices:

I have forwarded your website info to our director. At this point, I will be looking for your app in the app store. Please post when you get it out there. In the meantime, I will be…"
C. A. Beninati replied to C. A. Beninati's discussion iPad Classroom Management and Custom Educational Apps"Hey Audra,
