What .NET C# developers need to enter the hot field of iPhone apps iPhone applications offer a hot opportunity for developers. Until the open source MonoTouch project, this field was limited to those familiar with Apple’s programming languages. Now .NET and C# developers can join the party. Professional iPhone Programming with MonoTouch and .NET/C#is the first book to cover MonoTouch, preparing developers to take advantage of this lucrative opportunity. This book is for .NET developers that are interested in creating native iPhone applications written in .NET/C#. These developers want to use their existing knowledge. While .NET developers are always interested in learning, they also recognize that learning Objective-C and the specifics of the iPhone can be overwhelming. Those developers interested in MonoTouch will recognize that the cost of MonoTouch is easily made up by the ability to quickly target the iPhone using a language that they are already familiar with. This book is designed for .NET developers that want to target the iPhone. It is designed to help you get up to speed with the iPhone, not to really teach you about the .NET Framework or C# language, which we assume you already know. This book is designed with introductory material in Chapters 1 thru 4. You should read Chapters 1 thru 4 sequentially. These chapters introduce the MonoTouch product, the basics of developing with MonoTouch and MonoDevelop, and finally, the basics of presenting data to a user with screen and data controls and how to develop a user interface for the iPhone. Once you are comfortable with these concepts, you can typically move from one chapter to another and not necessarily have to read the chapters sequentially

When I first had the thought for this book one of my reasons for writing it was so I could entitle it the "You do Know you Will Get Wet" tour, yeah sad I know but it made me smile. In the end this pithy title had to go because it was just too easy a target to hit. Everyone goes on about the rain in Ireland whilst missing the point that if it didn't rain so much it wouldn't be quite so bloody beautiful, and beautiful it is. In fact we toured the entire length of the Wild Atlantic Way and only got wet twice, and on neither occasion did it rain hard enough to get past our skin. Anyway if you are that bothered about the rain you wouldn't own a motorbike in the first place now would you? The other thing that has become something of a cliché is how friendly the people are. I can confirm that cliché is, in actual fact, true. Look if you want a book telling you where to go, what must see places you have to visit and a detailed itinerary for every minute of the day on your tour put this down now because this isn't the book for you. Sure there are places mentioned in here and it will explain how we filled each day of our tour around the coast of Ireland but that was our tour, yours should and will be different. One thing that will be the same though, unavoidable in fact, is that you will come home staggered by the sheer beauty of this Island and the welcome of its people. Oh yeah one final point, the pictures in here are printed in black and white (paperback edition, the kindle edition is in colour and has far more pictures) to keep the cost down for you. I mean why spend a fortune on a book just to get colour pictures when you are going to see them in the flesh? And you better go my mate or you will be missing out on one amazing road trip, seriously.

So you bought all the gear, wandered off by yourself for a few trips and returned home brimming with tales of how wonderful life is while touring on a motorcycle, and then you hear these fateful words. "Why don't I come with you next time?"Two up touring, taking a pillion on the back, going on tour with your lass, other half, girlfriend, wife, or equal in status life partner, however you want to put it when you hear those words for the first time it can strike dread into your heart. Gone forever the feeling of freedom and lack of responsibility for anyone other than your own self, gone the diet of kebabs and beer, and gone the illusion of being a wild free spirit facing the road ahead with a world weary smile. Fear not, there is life after these words have been uttered. Within these pages is an account of a three thousand mile, six countries, five week tour I did with our lass on the back of my beloved bike that might put your mind at ease. Travel with us across the rain sodden plains of France, over the temperate peaks of the Alps, through the baking heat of the Italian SP road system, and into the quite nice weather of Slovenia. Meet the café owner renowned across France for his surly manner, be staggered by the towering Triglav mountain, amazed by the grandeur of the Grossglor ... Grooslock ... Grossglockner Pass ... oh to hell with this. It's a book about meandering across Europe on a motorbike and it could convince you to say "Why that's a wonderful idea darling" when she asks that question. Just don't for god's sake say "You can't, because I've already asked your slimmer sister" that would be insane, seriously. Anyway, if you like reading about motorbikes, mountains, muck spreaders and living on the road it should keep you amused, interested, and out of trouble for a few hours.
