After a bit of work, I finally got my first iPhone app on the App store. It’s nothing extraordinary, but was a learning experience for the most part. It’s called LDS Gems, and is an easier way to manage, read, and share the quotes and stories provided by the LDS church at http://gems.lds.org.
I used Titanium Appcelerator to build it, and was really impressed with how much easier it was to develop using Javascript as opposed to Objective-C. This is probably due to having quite a bit more experience with Javascript than the later, but I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone wanting to dive into iPhone App development, but not ready to take on learning Objective-C.

Brad,
I bought LDS gems for my Iphone 3GS with IOS4 running on it and it did not work. Dont know if it was the new software or what but I was bummed that I could not use it.
I am in the Bear Canyon Ward here in ABQ. how about you?
I’m sorry about that. I submitted an update for iOS 4, as it wasn’t running as is on the new OS, but it hasn’t been approved yet. It should be out any day, as they usually don’t take too long. Hang in there, it will work shortly on iOS 4.
I’m just here in the Bernalillo Ward in the Rio Rancho Stake.
Version 1.1 hit the App Store yesterday and fixes LDS Gems for iOS 4.
