I wasn't following WWDC closely, and I was wondering if they mentioned something about opening any maps related API's (specifically directions).

I was working on a project a while ago that used Google Directions API, and I did not like their premium model (since I wanted to distribute the app for free).

Now if Apple opens their own directions API I would like to pick up where I left off:)..

I would like to be able to hack a prototype in a month or so..

I haven't written a line of code in the past 7 years (and then it was mainly VB and C) and I basically need to start from scratch.

I don't like video schools like Treehouse because I find it redundant - I just can't skim through a video, or speed read parts of it.

I am just looking for a book that will cover all the basics and will basically teach me to build my first iOS app from scratch assuming I am an idiot. No more.

Any recommendations?
