Running Apps on iPod Touch / iPhone

Hi,

I don't have an ipod or iphone but I've written several applications and tested them in the simulator. I now want to try them on a real device, do I need to join the developer programme to get a certificate before I can try the applications on the devices?

Regards,

you should be able to provision the device to load apps on it from your laptop. That is, if I understood the information i briefly read when I d/loaded the SDK last week

I just revisited the iphone dev center and found this in the FAQ's

"How do I get my application onto my device for testing?
Assuming your device is connected to your computer via its 30-pin USB cable, and you have a valid certificate from the iPhone Developer Program..."

This means I can't test my application on a device without apple accepting me as a developer. So, these 25,000 developer that previously applied and didn't get accepted - what are they doing now, have they given up or do you re-apply?
