Thank you for your advice though.

Actually you might be surprised. Some offshore developers of Objective-C can be found for $15 an hour. Now I can't rpomise on the quality of it though. ;)

Hi,
As someone said here before, you will need Objective C programming and Cocoa Programming. More than any of them, you will need a Mac. I started programming my iPhone app about 3 months ago for a client and I am quite comfortable now. It was not too hard.
I can suggest you an easier way than an 'iPhone app' if you are planning to have an iPhone version for your website. Fire up Xcode (Editor on Mac) and create a basic project with WebView in it. (This is basically aimilar to any other view but shows up a website). That's it. You will not have to so anything else on a Mac or in Objective C.
You will have to customize a webpage version (CSS version) on your website for iPhone, which will be shown when the User Agent if from iPhone. If my explanation is getting complicated, try this.
1. Install Firefox and User Agent switcher Addon.
2. Select Tools -> Default User agent -> iPhone
3. Open Google.com or Digg.com.
You will see an iphone specific version of these pages. You can have such a page for yourself and an iPhone app displaying it.
I hope my explanation made some sense
. Anyways, you can mail me at
