Software Development Kit. Basically it's the software that Apple is allowing developers to develop iPhone apps. I hope this helps.

It's not unique to the iPhone. Apple also releases a SDK for development on the Mac OS. It's basically a set of tools that help developers create applications that work well and fit in with the Apple ecology.

and it's not unique to Apple too. All the major companies in the IT world offer SDKs. Microsoft also does.

Aloha jasonact,

Actually the iPhone SDK simply adds the iPhone-specific functionality to the existing Mac OS X SDK. It's what I've been using while working through the Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X book.
