Does the iPhone / iPod Touch support bulk enterprise app deployment or would all customers have to buy from app store

Question

I\'m just wondering if anybody knows if Apple provides deals to enterprises wanting to deploy an application to a large # of customers. Or does every customer have to go to

Answer 1

If you develop an application that you want to distribute yourself,it must be digitally signed with a certificate issued by Apple. You must also provide your users with a distribution provisioning profile that allows their device to use the application.
