If they wanted to encourage someone to resubmit an app at a later date when that person has followed all of the rules laid out, put quite a bit of time and effort into developing an app on their platform and been rejected with nothing to show for it then they should explain why an app has been rejected. The mere existence of the generic rejection emails suggests that tons of apps are being rejected. I'm sorry but the “Apple's just not ready for them” argument doesn't float with me.

Apple is approaching iPhone development very dogmatically; from the NDA that a developer has to agree to when they download the SDK to the generic form emails they send out when they reject an app – it all stinks of premeditation on the part of Apple.

When the iPhone 1.0 came out Apple had plans for the iPhone SDK but there was no way to release a stable product and a wide open platform in their time frame. Now, 2 months after the AppStore opens it doors people are giving Apple a hard time about denying a very small number of applications. Apple is not evil nor too Stupid to allow this application in. It is just not ready. The developer can educate Apple on the product and it may well make it back into the store some time in the future. <br><br>Give them some time to take a breath! They are still trying to stabilize the phone and SDK when it's developers are calling into them. Opening these to web designers takes additional consideration.
