Phil,
Downloading the iPhone SDK always includes XCode as part of the SDK. Getting XCode also brings with it all of the OS X Frameworks, etc. Whenever there is a new release of XCode, they will update the installer for the iPhone SDK. If there is a new version of the iPhone SDK then just download the iPhone SDK.
In a nutshell, if you plan on doing any iPhone development then just always download the iPhone SDK and you will always have the most up to date iPhone SDK as well as XCode Development Tools.
Cheers,
Mark

Sorry to everyone for the poorly worded question. What I was really asking was if it was necessary to continue tracking both Xcode distributions/releases (i.e. the latest iPhone SDK vs. Xcode 3.1.2, for example) I've been noticing lately that when you download one, the other often says 'if you've downloaded X, you don't need to install this version' So what I'm wondering is if it is necessary to continue to keep following both releases or if one is intended to be a superset of the other or, for those doing development on both iPhone and Mac applications, it is necessary to keep checking/installing releases of both to get all of the platform specific bits (frameworks, tools, etc.)?
Thanks,
Phil

Can some clarification as to which SDK developers who are doing both Mac and iPhone development should be tracking? i.e. is the plan that the 'traditional' Xcode SDK will remain a superset of both platforms or do developers need to continue tracking both and overlaying as needed when new releases come out?
I'm not sure the question makes sense. Mac OS X and iPhone have different SDKs.
