[MonoTouch] Can I show splash image within a second?

[akihiro uehara]

Hi,

I'm wondering how I can  show a splash image and a waiting cursor
within a second on a device.
On my test device (iPod touch 1st Gen. OS 3.1.2), even a simple hello
world app (release build) takes about 2 seconds until some views are
on a screen.

I want to show a splash image and a waiting cursor instead of the
black screen. To accomplish this, I think that I should write main and
application delegate class in objective-c to show a splash image and
then call a method written in monotouch.

Well, Is there any way to connect objective-c boot class to C# classes ?
Or is there any way to avoid start-up black screen ?
