If I buy XCode 4 on the app store, can I do iOS development?

I want to get into iOS development, and I didn't know if I NEED to do the $99/year registration just to play around with the SDK and XCode 4. I know you need that to submit apps to the store, but if I just want to do my own personal programming, can I just buy XCode? Thanks guys, it is just that $99 is a big step to play around with something I might end up not pursuing that much.

You can buy Xcode, but you'll be limited to development in the iOS simulator. The $99 fee is required to install on actual devices for testing.
