  I'm not a bit happy about anything Apple, but I'm not going to begrudge them this. What debate hasn't already raged on with regard to an app being written on/off jailbroken systems & then boosted by said corporation?
  
  This is simply a mile marker; to which I say, "An omelet will have been made, and my... the number of eggs that it took to make it."
