It really highlights the ridiculousness of apps having to go though Apple’s store. Why we can’t we buy apps independently, the same way we can buy programs for our computers independently?

Imagine if all our software had to be Windows or Mac approved… shivers

Imagine if Firefox had been banned because it duplicated the functionality of IE or Safari…

Other mobile devices work just fine being able to access independent programs. Maybe the various anti-competitive bodies need to stop focusing on Microsoft and start hassling Apple – if this isn’t harmful anti-competitive behaviour, I don’t know what is.

This nonsense has me considering ditching my iPhone (I’m within 30 days) and getting the G1.

ps. props to those who have been writing iphone apps and making money from the “one mail app is enough” drones hand over fist.

The iPhone is sold on the basis of desktop class email, that gmail app is a downgrade and likely to confuse customers.</p> I agree with Apple.

Is not 'choice' the main driver behind 'improvement'.. Do you not think Apple took a good mobile phone and thought 'this is a good phone... but would it not be better if it had this and that...' leading to their development of the iPhone! Whether or not an application replicates core functionality, apple should never ban it.

However, the Mail app is woefully adapted to the efficiencies that Google has put into Gmail. I would love an app for the iPhone similar to what I have for Blackberry that gives you threaded conversations. At the very least, Apple can equip its Mail app with a search feature!</p> I may not have a problem with the general approach of denying duplicative apps, though I think it’s pretty silly in the case of non-revenue apps.
