Something I've been musing over for the last few days has been whether or not this will help raise prices in the app store. Or will "push" be an add-on, purchased for $4.99/mo/yr via the new in-app store. As cstejerean said, "no shit, servers cost money." In any event, there are new ways coming to make your money back. Ars may be looking at this within the context of the current app store. Looking at it from what will be available in the near future changes the game a bit more. I for one will be raising prices on my apps, whether that cost is up front or via an in-app purchase after a short trial. We're not selling apps to lose money.
