London Bike App source code now available
Recently, on the MonoTouch list, there have been a lot of questions around things which, for me, are fairly basic, including UITabController MonoTouch.Dialog and UITableViews Location awareness GC issues I thought a good way to try to help people would be to release a full, working app, which illustrates this.
