Wow - this is fantastic! I'm glad i submitted this now, just reading the comments here is very heartening. I was beginning to think i was the only guy in the world who liked obj-c :) (i work in a c#/java predominaated environment where most people troll me about obj-c all day!)
I'd always considered myself a C++ guy before picking up obj-C, but looking at the result I get from the two I'm finding I'm just a lot faster with obj-C.
Now I have no desire to incite a language flamewar (to each their own blub!), so I will leave it at that ;)
I like obj-c, and never really found it hard. IMHO, the real challenge with Apple development is not the language but learning all the frameworks and the Apple way of doing things. The learning curve is a bit steep at first, but quite powerful (and intuitive) once you get over the hump.
