That would likely be against the terms of the API.

My suggestion as an iPhone developer would be to temporarily stor. Them in a db on a host and sort them there but it's more infrastructure than what they want to mess with.
Cmon, what about my Turkey Calls app??? Sure, it was nominated as one of the most annoying but cmon man, its Thanksgiving!

iTunes features it in their "Staff Favorites" right now so it has to be somewhat in the discussion http://bit.ly/3Bkjdo
Because most people know Thanksgiving has football going on.
Getting paid to pimp a product doesnt mean you actually have to use it does it?

I would gladly do a windows commercial for 10 million even though I use a Mac.

So pointing me to some cartoony apple site prove what to me? China is a perfect place for a business to hide all sorts of shenanigans and the only way to have full disclosure of your manufacturing methods and purported environmental process is to have it done here in the USA where corporations are held to a high standard (when enforced of course). If apple is in fact doing everything as green as can be done, great....but it looks fishy as they do it in China...renowned for being a horrible country in terms of caring about the environment.

What other reasons are there to have the manufacturing in China? Cheap labor? Hide from taxation and regulation? Im sorry if I don't see Apple as altruistically as others.

I own 2 macbooks and 4 iPhones so please spare me the PC fanboi critcism. I just believe they are being green snob hypocrites in this story because the very legislation Apple supports has no encouragement, like say, China, to also have the same sort of regulations limiting CO2 emissions.

So while businesses in the USA who manufacture stuff get penalized like crazy for having the gaul to release CO2, Apple skips along sanctimoniously criticizing and leaving the very organization that has small business in mind.... Small business is what powers our economy, not Apple.

Let me step off my soapbox before i get pelted with tomatoes.
Wonder what those Chinese factories are emitting as they are manufacturing sweet macbook pros?

Bring those plants to the good ole USA and you will then wrestle with unions, overzealous govt regulations regarding CO2 emissions and huge taxes...

But Apple is "green".
I question the environmental activism of many people, especially the obnoxiously loud ones. Is it concern for our earth or a means to control over capitalism?
Actually, that's Apple Corps.
Breaking News! Apple sues God for making the fruit the shape of Apple Corp's logo...
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
