One of the links I read quoted someone in saying something like, Apple dictating you have to develop with Objective-C is like Microsoft saying you can only use MS Paint to do artwork. That's a little extreme, but from what I have seen of Objective-C as a language, I think there is some truth to that.

As it was said on another list, there should be a bunch of application developpers HEROES that get together and build this killer app the iphone won't have. Btw, what's your stence on Objective C dev for the iPhones/iPads. Do you really think EA, Ubi, Gameloft do develop their games using Objective C ?
