In an unsurprising move, Apple has rebranded its developer program and portal for the iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch as the iOS Dev Center. The change from its previous "iPhone Dev Center" name follows a similar shift in the name of the devices' operating system made back in June.

Apple notes in a brief news posting that the iOS Developer Program offers the exact same benefits and resources as the iPhone Developer Program. The basic iOS Developer Program is priced at $99 per year, with a free program available for higher education institutions and a $299 program available for enterprise customers looking to develop proprietary, in-house applications for their business.
