FreshBooks time tracking iPhone app is now open sourced!

Many an iPhone enthusiast (like this writer) have attempted to write a native iPhone app. But many of them (like this writer) have failed to do so due to the fact that there aren’t many native iPhone apps examples available.
Thankfully, there is now some hope for the otherwise hopeless iPhone programmer wannabes, since the folks behind FreshBooks, a time tracking app for the iPhone, have decided to give us all a gift for Macworld 2009 and have released the source code of their program. Now anyone can download the open source of FreshBooks and tinker with it, thus improving their iPhone programming skills and getting to modify an already working native iPhone app.
According to the great folks behind FreshBooks: “We learned first hand that it’s not easy to make an iPhone app. Taking some inspiration from the folks at Automattic (who open sourced their free WordPress iPhone application), we’ve decided to give back to our customers by sharing what we’ve learned.”
So now everyone can download the source code of FreshBooks (and the app itself, of course) and see what kind of program they could create based on this example.
