With the lead developer of the Facebook’s iPhone app quiting because of Apple’s approval process earlier this week and a couple new stories of apps being rejected for reasons that make no sense, this cartoon is so fitting. (cartoon from xkcd via Jeff Kirvin)

And in other news, another developer pulls out on Apple because of their process. MacWorld is reporting that Rogue Amoeba is halting their iPhone development over App Store issues.

Adding its name to a rapidly growing list of disgruntled iPhone developers is Rogue Amoeba, makers of fine audio utilities for the Mac, such as Airfoil, Audio Hijack Pro, and Fission. The company has also entered the iPhone app market with Radioshift Touch and Airfoil Speakers Touch. Having shipped version 1.0.0 of Airfoil for the iPhone earlier this year, the folks at Rogue Amoeba quickly went to work on a 1.0.1 update to fix some bugs relating to audio sync when outputting to multiple sources.

Apple, wake up. Don’t shoot yourselves in the foot. The apps are what pulls a lot of people in. Piss off all your devs and your 100k apps will just age there in the crusty app store.
