That's great and all, but Palm really can't afford situations like this. If they want to be a viable alternative to the iPhone, then they need to not behave like Apple when it comes to App Store crappiness.
Rather than trying to emulate Apple, they need to have a clear difference and pound on it: "Oh, you think the Apple App Store sucks? Check out Palm, we treat you right!"
