TouchArcade brings news of EA's latest entry in the iPhone app business. SimCity will be arriving in a month or so for $9.99. MG Seigler of VentureBeat already saw it and liked it.

I got a chance to play a near-complete version of it today; it looks great. Fans of the series will recognize the SimCity 3000 look and feel, but the addition of touch screen controls makes sense for things like zoning (creating a certain type of building zone). Using the multi-touch capabilities of the iPhone to do things like zooming in and out of your city also makes the game a good fit for the device.
