Having worked in large corporations, I can see the point from your
perspective.
That notwithstanding, we have a clear case of dilbertesque corporate
insanity here:
In principle, I agree, and I'd even go so far as to diagnose the it more specifically as corporate schizophrenia. I get the impression that Apple's marketing, legal, and DTS sections aren't entirely on the same page concerning the goals & strategy for this release.
Having said that...
To be quite honest: With books, websites, blogs and forums discussing
the iPhone SDK at _every_ level of detail, I feel old-fashioned and
almost stupid to consider myself bound by it.
Disregarding any legal hair-splitting as to whether an HTML checkbox is a legally binding contract, and regardless of whether the wide availability of "unofficial" sources constitutes a "de facto" public release, I think an NDA has the same moral authority as any other promise or agreement. Keeping one's promises may well be old-fashioned, but I don't think it's stupid. Quite the opposite, in fact - I think it's the smart thing to do. NDAs are fairly ubiquitous these days, and I don't see how establishing a record of disregarding them could possibly be good for one's business prospects.
