You need to distinguish between
a) allocation (+alloc)
b) initialization (-init..)
c) deallocation (-dealloc)

Technically it might be OK not to call [super init] (depending on the  
Foundation library in use), but its highly recommended. The usual  
constructs looks like this:

- (id)init {
   if ((self = [super init]) != nil) {
     // here goes your object setup code
   }
   return self;
}

Note that -init can return *different* objects. Thats sometimes used  
for caches which return a cached object and dealloc the newly created  
instance. Its also used in class clusters. etc.
