There is also a potential synergy with dangover's incubator idea.
dangover, quite impressed with your accomplishment. This is perhaps a wrong headed idea (edit: but I would do it if I had your business and product skills):
Take your (iOS/Obj-C) engineering, product development, business development, and startup skills and experience, and combine them with your incubator idea. There is a gap (and not a new one at that) that has many startups and even established businesses in NYC feeling the pain, and that is finding and keeping tech talent. An incubator that, for example, also provided a shared framework for rolling out prototypes and 1st cut products, and had a core staff of experienced engineers to triage, could crank things out, get the products out in front of the customers, and then you can weed out the wheat from the chaff.
All the best to you. Enjoy your well earned success.
