Is there any ready-made calendar control for iPhone apps?

I am building an applicaiton for the iPhone that will display upcoming and past events. I settled for a list view, but then I realized that a calendar (just like the one displayed in the "month" view in the built-in Calendar application) would be a best match.

However, the iPhone Human Interface Guidelines just mentions the Date Picker, not the calendar, so I believe there is nothing like that out of the box. Is that true? If so, does anyone know of a third-party control that could be used? (I could write one myself, but I'd rather pick up something ready, since this is a departure on the original project plans).

Yes.

These are the option I am aware of:

EDIT: as of May 6, 2010

1) GCCalendar

2) http://github.com/klazuka/Kal

3) http://code.google.com/p/iphonecal (needs to be customized - easily - to change text from chinese to english)

4) Commercial: http://nrg.com.bd/blog/archives/36 but the look & feel of the previous ones is much, much better and they are free, if you can comply with their licenses.

Hope this helps.
