Now comes the anxious waiting for Apple to review and hopefully approve the application. Indications are that this may take up to a week. If successful, then I'll post a new thread for the official version.

Thanks to everybody on CA who took the time to provide feedback, testing and moral support. This has been quite a journey for me over the past 3 months. In fact, as of Christmas 2008, I had never written a single line of C code in my life. Today I released a full featured application with hundreds (probably thousands) of lines of code. As I said, quite a journey. Regardless of the outcome, this is a very satisfying day for me.

Thanks again!

I just purchased 2 iPhones. Mine will definitely have this the second I see your post that it's approved and up. This has been the most interesting thread for me since the Silound Dog Rocket Review. Thanks so much for doing this and for giving us the insight into the madness that creating a program instills.

I believe it is either $3.99 or $4.99 if I remember what Ken told me before. I'm sure Ken will post soon.

Andrew is my agent here

The plan is $3.99. About the cost of a fairly pedestrian stogie :-)

Apple gets 30% of the sales for hosting and managing sales, so I don't expect to quit my day job. Sure would be nice to get a few cigars for my efforts though

Ken, let us know as soon as you hear that it is live. Im going crazy waiting for this app. Cant wait. Maybe today.

KenS · 03-25-2009, 06:54 AM

Still "in review". I have a feeling today might be the day, based on feedback I've gotten from others who have submitted apps. Or, I'm just dreamin'

DPD6030 · 03-25-2009, 08:00 AM

Fingers crossed cause if it does I'll be heading home after the herf and downloading it.

fissure · 03-25-2009, 08:38 AM

Dang, now I really need to quit buying cigars and save for an Itouch

Great work Ken!

03-25-2009, 12:06 PM

Thankfully I can still use the Beta! Unfortunately I loss everything once I put in the real version.

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
