Just out of interest, do you have an offline API checker app that could, say, be run against applications before they get uploaded to the App Store? Or possibly that could be run as part of the upload process? It's conceivable it might be useful to have the *phones themselves* verify the app before installing them, too. (I'm thinking here of the ghastly mess Java ME is in where applications will either work, not work, randomly crash, or crash the phone, depending on which private APIs they're using. If there was a way of getting the phone to at least *warn me* if I was installing a dodgy app I'd be rather happy.) -- ┌─── ｄｇ＠ｃｏｗｌａｒｋ．ｃｏｍ ───── http://www.cowlark.com ───── │ │ ⍎'⎕',∊N⍴⊂S←'←⎕←(3=T)⋎M⋏2=T←⊃+/(V⌽"⊂M),(V⊝"M),(V,⌽V)⌽"(V,V←1⎺1)⊝"⊂M)' │ --- Conway's Game Of Life, in one line of APL
