Best way to create panoramas on iPhone?

I'm trying to create panoramas in an iOS app by stitching together several images (similar to an app like PhotoSynth). I've looked all over and haven't yet found a winning implementation strategy. Here are the things I've looked into:

1) Linking OpenCV for iOS and implementing stitching and the panorama creation process myself.

2) Getting panotools to work on iOS and using the PT* functions to produce the panorama

Am I on the right track? Are there any simpler ways of implementing this?

Obviously a good quality out-of-the-box solution is preferred, but if there isn't one, which of the two above (or another) strategies would be best for a CV novice?

Perhaps you should try to understand how to build panoramas from a technical stand point before you implement the software on the IPhone.

EDIT: March 2013 I'm pretty sure the link I gave worked in January 2012, but it is indeed now broken, Alternative links: https://www.cs.washington.edu/education/courses/cse455/06wi/readings/szeliskiShum97.pdf http://www.multires.caltech.edu/teaching/courses/3DP/papers/SchumSzeliski.pdf
