RemObjects has launched a new tool for Mac OS and iPhone developers, RemObjects SDK for OS X. The fully native OS X framework is compatible with Xcode, Cocoa and Objective-C. It focuses on cross-platform remote-access capable client/server software, allowing designers to include network communication capabilities within their apps. The new RemObjects framework is compatible with its sister products on the Linux/Windows side, allowing for easy communication between all three platforms.

The new SDK is the first of a series of promised frameworks, with a database-driven SDK called Data Abstract for OS X coming later in 2009. The framework requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later, Xcode 3.1 or later and supports iPhone 2.0 or higher, along with 32-bit and 64-bit software.

The SDK is both Snow Leopard (Mac OS X 10.6) and iPhone 3.0 ready. RemObjects SDK for OS X is now available and costs $400.
