First post from WP iPhone
Have discovered WordPress App, by chance, during my daily visit to App Store. I was waiting for it since a long time. Too cool for Micro blogging 
Local draft folder is useful to prepare posts before publishing.
The “Stats” section is missing. A simple Stats menu like the one which is available in http://m.wordpress.com would be a nice to have feature.
Previewing a (local) Post just before publishing is nice.

“Setting Up Blogging Base Camp” (Lisa Sabin-Wilson)
Registering for a new domain
I’ve finally choosed the first in the list: GoDaddy. Not without visiting the challengers: Register, NetworkSolutions and NamesDirect.
I’ve choosed to register for .com and .mobi for 2 years (till June 30th, 2010), see checkout form below:
From GoDaddy FAQ:
Can I register domains if I don’t have a hosting provider ?
Yes, you can.GoDaddy automatically park domain you register with them. A temporary parked page displays when visitors go to your Web site. See my parked page below:
How do domain names work

"WordPress FOR DUMMIES", a beginner review
I like the 2 first yellow pages "Cheat Sheet" containing easy access information and useful URL.
I've skipped Part II "Using WordPress Hosted Service", I'll go back later for blog design purpose.
The interesting things starts with Part III "Self-Hosting with WordPress.org". Chapter 6 "Setting Up Blogging Camp" is a must-read . It contains useful information for :
- domain regiteration
- web services hosting
- required PHP and MySql versions to install WP.
The informations contained are explained at a beginner level (for dummies):
- what is FTP
- bandwith explaination
- disk storage
