Dear Apple Jerks,

This guy from some Australia is going to murder mofos if you don't let this app through.

So, I'll ask again. /8) Is the App Store the only way we can get the app?

Okay, am I a retard or am I missing something. I have tried installing the app via itunes and the iphone config utility. Both give me an error: (0xE8008015) for itunes and (-40620395) for the congig utility. Can someone help me? Or do I need to sit back and wait for it to hit the App Store?

Several people have had this issue, but I haven't been able to make any headway, so it seems really random, I think the only common thread is windows.

Done. Sent the UDID in a PM. Thanks.

I got the same error and I use a mac!

not sure what's up with that. Feel better that I am not a retard!

It's a bit half baked, but I added a settings bundle (only the streaming past shows over cellular bit works) and I added everybody who sent me a UDID.

Expect another build sometime tomorrow.

Thanks!

First off: Great job! The app feels very responsive and snappy, despite having more functionality than most other apps –*nice!

First time testing, so here's just a few things I've noticed –*forgive me if these were mentioned before. All minor stuff and very nit-picky – cause I'm an arse.

Here goes:

- There's no visual indication whilst submitting your feedback that it's being processed, so it almost seemed like it's hanging. The app in general never seems to cause the 'network activity' indicator in the menu bar to display... 3.0 bug, or choice? That indicator or another spinner somewhere might be nice to have, especially on 3G or edge where it might take a few seconds to go through.

- Similarly a 'feedback sent' confirmation might be a good idea. Twitterific uses a slide in 'feedback sent' label at the top of the screen –*but that might be a lot of effort. I could imagine just putting 'Feedback sent!' message into the main text field as a placeholder and then fading it out after a few seconds again would work.

- The date formatting in the events section is US-style, so I guess it doesn't use the system setting? Not a biggie, just throwing it out there.

- Playing a past show seems to force me into landscape mode?

- The shadows on the dividers in the twitter section seem a lot bigger than in the events section (might just be me)? Perhaps that could be harmonised. Personally I'd scrap the shadows –*the 3D effect looks "busy". Ditching the shadows will also give you more vertical space in each 'slice' –*more room to play with and perhaps increase font size?

- The alignment of the text & hour / day indicator in the twitter section is a bit off and you're wasting a lot of space on the longer messages.

- If you leave the description in settings the way it is at the moment, you're almost certainly going to get rejected. If the reviewer hadn't thought about it before, they will once the see the 'stream over cellular' string.

- If I disable streaming over cellular and then try to play a past show anyway, the app crashes. (Durr, but still might prevent approval)

- Had one weird issue with a popup, but this might have been a fluke. Wasn't able to reproduce:
