Apple Taketh and Apple Giveth (Sometimes)
If iPhone app developers have one complaint about Apple’s (AAPL) App Store, it’s that the approval process for apps isn’t transparent enough. Apps have been known to be rejected, or worse, sent into a black hole without an explanation.
Some apps that one might think would be rejected are approved, while others that seem like no-brainers aren’t.
