I look forward to trying that out, please let us know when it's available. It'll be good when there's finally a Lojban-specific app in the iTunes Store :-)
Regarding my conlanger meet-up app idea, I retain no rights to the idea should you or anyone else wants to implement it either solo or as a collaboration.
On a slightly related note, there's now a free iBooks Author app in the Mac App Store for authoring rich content books for iPad consumption. It looks ideal for creating and sharing educational textbooks. The CLL as an iBook would be a good place to start, once the latest changes to it have been completed - thoughts anyone?

[repost, original seems to have been lost to the aether]
I've got an Apple iOS Developer account and would be happy to have a hand in writing a Lojban app for iOS (and Android if I can get the damn SDK and toolset stable), it's just I haven't thought of an app idea that has anything better to it than those that already exist.
My dev language of choice would probably be the _javascript_ variant from Appcelerator, not that it's anything amazing, but it can compile to multiple platforms and takes away some of the suckage of Objective C.
One idea I had was perhaps a meet-up app for conlangers in general, whereby you tick the list of languages you speak or are learning to speak and perhaps your level of proficiency, and let it run in the background occasionally checking your location in to a central server. When someone else with a matching conlang interest is nearby the phone can alert you so you can meet up and say coi. Might be good for finding people to practice with?

Just a thought.
