Imagine how I feel. Reading some posts on a dev site, I'm seeing some consistent data that suggests that 7 days is "the number", so maybe tomorrow is more likely. I need to take about a 48 hour nap so I can stop checking back to see if it's been approved. What really gets me going is people who report apps that take weeks, or even a month and a half to get reviewed.

Then again, 6% get rejected for one reason or another, so I'd better be careful what I wish for

Might have to be at the 5'oclock tomorrow to then

Above is an interesting read on the current state of the iTunes store and application approvals.

I liked the following list of top complaints:

- Delays in approval. Although Apple claims that 96% of apps submitted in February were approved — 98% within seven days — reports persist of apps languishing in the queue for months.
- Delayed payments. The waits for monthly payments have grown longer this year, on occasion violating the contract that says they must be paid within 45 days of the end of the month. See here.
- A punitive refund policy. As Techcrunch’s Leena Rao reports, developers get only 70% of each sale, but if a user demands a refund within 90 days, Apple makes the developer return 100% of the sale price.
- Failure to police the App Store. Several developers (three that we know of) are loudly complaining that clones of their original apps have been approved by Apple and are now being sold by copycats on the App Store. See here and here.
