iPhone Development Developer Program and a Client

Note: I have given up on compiling iPhone Apps without a developer certificate for the SDK 3.x... for now. But it wasn't for a lack of trying. Anyway...

I work for a client who will will be making iPhone Apps but will not deliver them through the AppSt开发者_开发问答ore for the time being. I will be testing and deploying iPhone apps to a device I own, and they will need to distribute to their iPhones/iPod Touches. If I buy a $99 developer certificate, will that be enough to distribute an app onto iPhones that are not connected to my computer?

If not, how can this be done for testing -- distributing to other iPhones -- with the least number of certificates? I have checked this out a bit, but I haven't been able to fully undertand it (I'm kind of busy trying to learn to program for the iPhone :)

You want to use an Ad Hoc distribution certificate (available as part of the $99 program). This will enable you to install on up to 100 devices. To install all the user needs is a device with the correct provisioning profile and iTunes (Mac or PC)

Purchasing the $99 iPhone Developer Program will give you the ability to create ad hoc builds which will be able to run on up to 100 provisioned devices.
