I've got 1 app in the app store and 2 more on the way. I finally feel really comfortable with ios development now.

Here's what helped me most:

- Taking a pragmatic studios course in Chicago. (might be expensive for some but worth it for me as I needed to get away and focus)

- Apple sample code

- The big nerd ranch book is great IMO

- maniacdev does a great job aggregating tutorials

- ray wenderlich's stuff is great (I've purchased all his products)

Thanks, maniacdev looks like a great resource. The format of the four day course may be a bit too much for me to handle at my current level, but I'll keep it in mind.

[edit] What's the name of the app in the app store?

Oh, it's just a farmers market directory for the west coast. It's old and I'm not proud of the design ... but hey, I shipped something.

The app looks useful, if I was on the west coast I would buy it. Have you given any thought on expanding east?

Just looking at the screen cap you could increase the design aesthetic by using a solid frame instead the wood. The wood makes the titles hard to read.

Awesome list, I'd add the iTunesU course CS193P (Fall 2011) and Treehouse - with these resources, you're more than set!

Also: +1 for the interest in the apps you released.
