iPhone API is not free

This is a quick comment regarding the blog post http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/03/06/iphone-20-enterprise-ready-developer-ready/ . I copy it for your reference.

“The SDK kit is available immediately. Go here to learn more. You have to join the Apple developer program ($99) to start making iPhone apps.”

It’s ridiculous to charge developers for using iPhone API. Microsoft does not charge developers for using .NET Framework. Sun does not charge developers for using Java. Facebook does not charge developers for using Facebook API.

If you do not build a large network of developers who are developing countless applications for your platform, how can you promote your platform?
