This is a really great article. I like your approach. One problem I sill have with pointers is this: Why and when should you use pointers? The copy example was a good one but I have the feeling that that just scratches the surface. Especially when looking at C, C++ or Objective-C code. Pointers seem to be everywhere with absolutely no rhyme or reason. A post on why and when to use pointers would be excellent.
