Being an Interaction Designer in the iPhone applications world

Hi all,

I'd like to know if any of you have some experience with iPhone
interaction design. To me, it looks like iPhone applications are
sometimes dominated by devs that are able to create their apps
without any help. Obviously, I am referring to what it looks like an
early stage of the iPhone application design. Where early means
functionalities and extra features but not studying, testing and
finding the best interface solutions (with the necessary exceptions
ofc).

Designing for WAP v/s iPhone (web app)

I'm designing a content website for the iPhone and was asked to investigate
on how the design should translate to the WAP (i.e other internet enabled
devices) version. I've lately seen a trend (not entirely sure though, my
first reaction was WAP is still around?) where the WAP version is pretty
much a downgraded iPhone experience- stripping off the iPhone specific
elements. Does this path work or does the WAP version need a completely
different set of considerations?

Mobile Design

Hi Guys,

I am interested to hear the thoughts of those on the list with
regards to Mobile Design - i.e. designing for Mobile devices such as
the iPhone or Blackberry.

Do you have a favorite mobile site, or sites?

Do you have any recommended books on mobile design best practices?

I am just interested about the thoughts of the list on this emerging
field, and on how you see it progressing over the coming weeks,
months and years!

Cheers,

Kris

iPhone Number Conversion

Does anyone know how you can PREVENT the iPhone from taking a string
of numbers and trying to convert it to a phone number? I know that
there are ways to code a link as a phone number, but we have several
strings of numbers on a mobile site that we want to prevent from
being converted to a useless phone number.

I did some searching, but couldn't find anything relevant.
