What is the best iPhone application for the DC Metro / WMATA?

Q. There are quite a few third party iPhone applications for navigating the metro (subway) and bus system in DC. What is the best application to use for WMATA?

A. Best to ask in the mobile phone cat on here for a correct answer,.

What software/program could I use to make iPhone Applications on WINDOWS?
Q. I want to start developing iphone applications, but most of these softwares or programs designed to do this are for macs only. Do you know any that will work on Windows please?
Thank you

A. http://www.DragonFireSDK.com

I created the App "Ditto!" entirely in Windows with DragonFireSDK. It's a Windows iPhone SDK that has an iPhone Simulator, you can test your App in your iPhone / iPod Touch, and send it to the App Store without ever touching a Mac.

Here's a link to Ditto!:

What do you suspect is more difficult, programming an iPhone application or a website like Facebook?
Q. I'm starting a project. I'm wondering whether those who are knowledgeable about the subject matter would say that programming a website with user-submitted content would be more difficult than programming an iPhone application or two? Including the difficulty in learning the various languages and programs involved.

I realize this is a pretty subjective question, just looking for some insight from the general population. Thanks for your time!

A. An iPhone application would almost definitely be easier. A slightly larger learning curve (Objective-C is more complicated than HMTL/PHP/SQL) but in the end you'd end up doing much less work.
