Dealing with Cocoa Objective-C

Let me start by saying that I love programming on Windows with Visual Studio 2005 using the C# 2.0 version. I purchased a MAC on the last day of the year in 2006 and thought I would start learning how to program on the MAC. Well, it is not easy to learn a new language and IDE when you don't play with this stuff everyday. There are plenty of languages and tools to choose from including Java, AppleScript, REALBasic, and know Adobe's flex. The "real" MAC development is done with Objective-C, so I think.

Okay, the Objective-C language is interesting and has some nice things about it. What I find is that there is nothing available for easily learning the language and XCODE for the current version of MAC. Since I have an iPod touch and the SDK should be out some time this month I feel I should learn this stuff so I can make my own apps for the device. Maybe even make a couple bucks...
