    I’ve bought TechBASIC and it worths every penny as a great progrramming language for iPhone and iPad.

    It’s easy (similar to VB), powerful (strong matrix handling), educational (touch screen and programming language is a very nice mix), responsive (giroscope, magnetometer, acelerometer and external devices interfaces) and graphic (handling images, buttons, pickers, sliders, etc.)

    techBASIC Developer Mike Westerfield told me that sound and flash handling is coming soon.
