SIGNING UP FOR THE IOS DEVELOPER PROGRAM
The first step toward testing your application on a real device is to sign up for the iOS Developer Program at http://developer.apple.com/programs/ios/. Two programs are available: Standard (Individual) and Enterprise. For most developers who want to release applications on the App Store, the Standard program, which costs $99, is sufficient. Check out http://developer.apple.com/programs/start/standard/ to learn more about the differences between the Standard and Enterprise programs.
If you just want to test your application on your actual iPhone/iPod touch, sign up for the Standard program.
