• The application is tested in "iPhone simulator".
• The developer has to pay the Apple Developer Connection membership fee to facilitate the loading of applications developed for the phone.
• Applications can be sold or distributed through the App Store only. The developer has the right to assign a price for the request, but would have the participation of 70% of the the App Store.
