Question: Using [PyObjC](http://pyobjc.sourceforge.net/), you can use Python to write Cocoa applications for OS X. Can I write native iPhone apps using Python and if so, how?

Answer: 
It seems this is now something developers are allowed to do: the iOS Developer Agreement was changed yesterday and appears to have been ammended in a such a way as to make embedding a Python interpretter in your application legal:

**SECTION 3.3.2 — INTERPRETERS**

**Old:**

> 
> 3.3.2 An Application may not itself install or launch other executable
>  code by any means, including without
>  limitation through the use of a
>  plug-in architecture, calling other
>  frameworks, other APIs or otherwise.
>  Unless otherwise approved by Apple in
>  writing, no interpreted code may be
>  downloaded or used in an Application
>  except for code that is interpreted
>  and run by Apple’s Documented APIs and
>  built-in interpreter(s).
>  Notwithstanding the foregoing, with
>  Apple’s prior written consent, an
>  Application may use embedded
>  interpreted code in a limited way if
>  such use is solely for providing minor
>  features or functionality that are
>  consistent with the intended and
>  advertised purpose of the Application.
> 
> 
> 

**New:**

> 
> 3.3.2 An Application may not download or install executable code.
>  Interpreted code may only be used in
>  an Application if all scripts, code
>  and interpreters are packaged in the
>  Application and not downloaded. The
>  only exception to the foregoing is
>  scripts and code downloaded and run by
>  Apple’s built-in WebKit framework.
