I am waiting for a book like this to help me climb the steep learning curve. However, between Obj-C and Java, there doesn't seem to be a contest. I can get more help in Borders if I am working in Java. Not to mention my local community college offers way more Java courses than Obj-C courses.


From the point of view of someone who is just getting started, Java seems to be the language of choice. So why does the book use Obj-C examples? I don't really want an answer to that question. But I offer a suggestion...


Can O'Reilly help Apple publish an amendment (perhaps online?) to this book showing all the code examples in Java, rather than Obj-C?


Thanks!
