Is it possible to call a command-line utility from a running app on iOS devices?
The utility is a binary executable and is supposed to be included in the app package.
There already are command line utilities (think iSSH) on the iPhone. If what you mean, however, is "can you use underlying UNIX system utilities" or "run a utility you bundle onto a iPhone shell", no it's not possible.
Apart from that, bundling an opensource utility with a closed source application will open interesting legal challenges, you would have to be very attentive to implications of licenses.

I am planning to learn to program with Directx9/10 this summer.My computer has Directx11 installed. I was wondering if previous versions will work on it? I tried running a few sample codes from Frank Luna's website I ran into some errors.
Yes absolutely.
But if you are using any of the DX helper DLLs (D3DX_xx.dll) that comes with the SDK (and not shipped in Windows), you may need to redistribute those binaries with your application.
For local development, easiest thing to do is just install the DirectX 9 or 10 SDK on your computer. It should copy the extra helper DLLs as appropriate.

I am developing an iPhone app and I need it to call a number that starts with *, is there a way to overcome Apple's restrictions (I know they prevent that)?
If Apple has explicitly restricted something then you can't just "overcome" it in the build in SDK. Usually the only way to get around Apple's security protocols is to develop an application strictly for Cydia.

I have a windows vista machine and also a mac with xcode. What would be the easiest way to start writing some Lua code?
Download lua from here. Compile it. Open up a text editor and start writing.
If you just want to try out some simple things, then try the online lua demo.
Just download - http://www.lua.org/download.html \
then:
Lua hello world

The Kinect for Windows SDK beta is a programming toolkit for application developers. It enables the academic and enthusiast communities easy access to the capabilities offered by the Microsoft Kinect device connected to computers running the Windows 7 operating system.
But what kind of application we can build by using it?
Take a look at the example projects using it.
Following some other useful links:
The OpenKinect project
Primesense OpenNI(Primesense makes the sensor inside Kinect)
Softkinetic iisu

Today I read abouts this on hacker news https://github.com/udibr/bitcoinApp which is an interesting app, and is a good resource to learn from.
Do you know about some other open source iOS apps from where I can enrich my iOS/objective-c knowledge?
From a game programmer perspective (mine)...
You can check cocos2d engine.
Oolong Engine (for 3D OpenGL ES).
Also, Canabalt went open source.
