Yes, I feel your pain. The Apple example didnīt kick it for me, either.
The Time Zone Names are stored in OSX and are used for your locale when you choose your area and language, as far as I know.
The problem with Appleīs examples is that you either donīt get enough to do what you want or else the complexity is far too high. Look up localized strings here, check getter-method there and bring information from 10 different places together though you really didnīt get the basics yet.
I think, Appleīs docu is smashing as soon as you know how it works and you need additional info/options.
I did however find examples that got me going:
iPhone Programming Tutorial - Populating UITableView With An NSArray | iCodeBlog
Custom UITableViewCell : Iphone Noob
Especially the first one, the Fruit-example, is pretty useful. Having model objects as the basis of each cell makes the transition to a database relatively smooth (I hope).
