Skype which is well known for free calling service, but now Apple and their alliance is making it a paid service for iPhone users which is very bad actually. Apple has allowed Skype over 3g till 2011 from August 2010, this is probably a good news.

Well, if Apple has decided to allow Skype over 3G network then this shows that they’re actually looking for the user response over this update. If the user started using Skype instead of phone call, then this becomes a troublesome for Apple and their alliance if not then, hopefully they’ll allow Skype for free.

• August 22, 2009 -- iPhone application approval process — Dubious (1)

Apple says, you should not advertise or disable features in an iPhone or iPodTouch application in order to get people to buy some other app. But that is exactly what Rope’n'Fly did with their lite version app and got away!!

Rope’n'Fly advertises their high scores feature in the lite version app by saying it is not available for “training” mode. That may be a nice mask, may be high scores are not available for training mode even in the full version, but when the lite version app is considered as an app on its own that is “illegal”.

Rope’n'Fly is great and is my current favorite game for the iPhone, but did they do any thing to get the app go through the review process without any hiccups? Some of mine don’t seem to get that privilege!! Infact, one my apps which was approved the first time, was rejected (citing a UI issue, which I never knew was a problem) when I tried to update it.

Wish all developers the best of luck with their application approval process for iPhone!!
