The framework you use for writing your applications (Cocoa Touch) is pretty powerful and Objective-C (especially 2.0) is a nice language. And, you can mix in C++ wherever you want (e.g., write portable application logic in C++, and only the GUI layer in Objective-C, using Cocoa Touch). From a quick glimpse at the iPhone SDK it should be easy to port POCO to the iPhone (it's basically Mac OS X, so not much porting necessary). iPhone software is usually written in Objective-C.

Being completely ignorant about all things Apple (the only device I own is the <a href="http://www.apple.com/ipodshuffle/" rel="nofollow">Shuffle</a>), this was rather surprising for me.

Given that there is <a href="http://marcoplusplus.blogspot.com/2007/05/stlport-for-symbian-os-released.html" rel="nofollow">STLPort for 9.x</a>, maybe there is some hope there, after all.

Someone should do it…
