If you want to create perfect iPhone Web apps, or see examples of sites that make the grade, you only need to study this magnificent page at iPhoneWebDev.com.

The iPhoneWebDev site, like most good things related to Web development for iPhone, is a by-product of iPhoneDevCamp, a flash-mob gathering of iPhone coders that convened right after the device’s launch.

There are already some marvelous iPhone app/sites out there–check out appleopolis.com. Many of these app/sites are listed in multiple Appleopolis’ directory categories, so the count looks higher than it really is. I’ve got a column to file, so I’ll check back in with the gems from this collection. You don’t need iPhone to see them. Grab the Safari 3 beta and use iPhoney. iPhoney isn’t a simulator–Apple really needs to do one–but it does create a properly-sized window for accurate display of sites that want to look like native iPhone apps.
