Sure. Ease of use has always been a paramount concern for Apple, and an Apple store with one touch downloads certainly has that. The problem for developers becomes getting approved for inclusion on the Apple store.

The NDA has since been changed, it is now okay for developers to discuss programming on the iPhone.

I believe it's only communications from Apple that are under the NDA.
That makes much more sense. If Apple wants to encourage developers to create iPhone apps, they should at least be able to talk to each other.
