Yeah. Part of the reason I started developing for the Pre was because the learning curve was really low. I do most of my development on the web, and so I already knew all of the Pre tools. Palm went to a lot of effort to make it's development environment available to just about anyone who wants to use it. In contrast to the iPhone (which I do own) whose development environment is platform limited (though I am a dedicated Mac user) and language syntax is relatively unfamiliar.
Ironically, I've spent some time with the Pre and I would still choose the iPhone over it. Maybe when the GSM version becomes available I can pick one up for development.
