Monotouch is magic! It is totally beyond me how they got it to work! Just 
imagine how amazing it must have been when the first time some C# code turned 
into a UIButton on screen! 
That reminds me: I would like to read about the story of Monotouch. How was it 
built? What were the first milestones?

Grüße, René
