John McCain http://www.macobserver.com/imgs/tmo_articles/20091 ... - brbeaird, on 11/16/2009, -0/+8I'm not sure how this makes Apple look any better. I'm not convinced they would have allowed this one through had there not been such an outcry about it.
- lkbvr, on 11/16/2009, -2/+9"Apple, in other words, usually managers to do the right thing"
Not only a bad article, but a badly written article. Thanks PCWorld! - Orbital101, on 11/16/2009, -0/+6I'm not so sure approving a bobble-head app that gives me errors I wouldn't have seen anywhere else impresses me that much.
- jud420, on 11/16/2009, -0/+5whats a 'fast majority'?
- FredFredrickson, on 11/16/2009, -0/+5PC World, now defending a process that has been revealed to be greatly flawed time and time again, moves further yet into irrelevance.
- Charlotte_Web, on 11/16/2009, -0/+4Nancy Pelosi has that manic looks in her eyes... just like real life!
- LordVance, on 11/16/2009, -0/+3The article contains a much higher quantity of typo's than new pieces of information.
- Lightstab, on 11/16/2009, -3/+6I think the funniest thing about this rejection is that people who claimed to have an iPhone, we threatening to leave the iPhone because of its rejection. I mean, really, a bobble head app is really that important to you?
- JasonQpublic, on 11/16/2009, -0/+3Ha! You should see Henry Waxman! Couldn't find a pic of him to post.
- Kinneas12, on 11/16/2009, -0/+3How was this article a "closer look"? Three paragraphs of what we already know.
- Laminarcissus, on 11/16/2009, -2/+5>>>(On my iPhone, at least, it's profoundly hobbled by error messages I've never seen before -- but the program is only 99 cents, so I can live with the disappointment.)
The approval process is "not so bad?"
It first gets rejected for not fitting in with Apple's Cultural Revolution. Then after some pressure Apple just reverses themselves. Then it doesn't even run right on a closed platform that it's supposedly been tested for.
Inconsistent approval decision that may or may not be arbitrarily reversed and a technical testing process that allows error-prone apps into their delicately-protected user experiences?
What exactly is this approval process actually getting right? - k3rfuffl3, on 11/16/2009, -3/+5Apple should make political ads. Their Mac vs. PC campaign would work quite well. It's equally full of *****.
- graywolfz10, on 11/16/2009, -4/+6You speak so clear with Steve jobs dick in your mouth.
- MacHarborGuy, on 11/16/2009, -0/+2most of the time they don't eat
- sHockz, on 11/16/2009, -0/+2Political Caricature App: Approved
Reason: does not threaten Apple in any way from being the megalo-corporation they are determined to be. - diggduggDOOM, on 11/16/2009, -0/+2Seems like approval was granted precisely for responses like this from PCWorld.
After all, "maybe it's not so bad." - jeffwmartin, on 11/16/2009, -0/+2Weird error messages you've never seen before: there's an app for that.
- JohnnySoftware, on 11/19/2009, -0/+1Probably just shills with an imaginary iPhone.
- deslock, on 11/16/2009, -1/+2That is absolutely not what the rejection letter said.
It specifically said that it violated their terms, not because of technical issues. - CraigHwk, on 11/16/2009, -1/+2but still no Google Voice
- JohnnySoftware, on 11/19/2009, -0/+1What facts do they state or assert that are not true?
- yttrstein, on 11/16/2009, -1/+1Have you ever seen a rejection letter from Apple that claimed "technical issues" as the reason? Ever?
- nuhrd, on 11/16/2009, -1/+1Badly? I'm guessing your high horse is not that tall.
- yttrstein, on 11/16/2009, -3/+1I just downloaded it. It appears to me from actually experiencing this app that Apple very likely initially rejected it because it's an unstable piece of ***** that doesn't actually work. Then, it appears that a bunch of spoiled digg children jumped on some kind of bobble-head bandwagon, flamed Apple until they had enough and let it through, and now I've spent 99 cents on an application that's junk.
Thanks, digg.
