it's not a magic white list. it's actually an explicit list on the iphone. you can apply to have your app exempted.

  Sure, you can apply. That doesn't make it easier to explain to customers why they can't even test the app properly on their test devices. This fact was also basically undocumented which made things... interesting.

    I don't really understand what your second sentence means. what customers? what app? why can't you test it on the device? I'm not defending apple on this, at all. but from the time I've spent working with these devices, there is just so much going on in so many levels, you can't possibly cover everything with public facing documentation. and you probably shouldn't anyway.

      I'm taking about apps that provide WISPr functionality. The customer is the one paying for said app and they can't test it since the built-in WISPr gets in the way. I think everything should be in public documentation. I don't like knowing that if I can visit Cupertino I might find out about some API I just really-really need, but not if I search the documentation.

        ah, I get it. from apple's perspective: they dont have to document everything. they covered the majority of stuff that the majority of developers/users care about. this is pretty much affecting almost nobody. from my perspective: god dammit I wish they documented the goddamn provisioning system. I know the only people that need to care are carriers, but that would make my job a lot easier.
