Is it possible to create an iphone app and put it on just your iphone (i.e. no distribution) using this software ?

Ofcourse I mean without jail-breaking the iphone or without enrolling in the iphone developer program.

Has anyone here tried this?

You will have to pay apple $99 a year to be able to provision for your phone. That same $99 will allow you to distribute through the App Store, and on up to 100 devices outside of the app store. Right now, you pay to provision on phones, even if you aren't interested in distribution.

It is possible to create the app and run it in a simulator using some of these tools.
