Bror, K, JIm – I agree – think hold-up is likely at Apple's end. Hopefully we will see lots more come flooding through once the 3.0 download frenzy eases and he 3GS launch is done and dusted. Then we can all happily start paying for extra weapons within games and all that good stuff 🙂

Only a couple out of 118 apps and the feedback that I've gotten from developers (I am not one) is that Apple is the bottleneck and it is taking weeks to get things pushed out (and sometimes longer with silly rejections.) It appears that Apple has created a monster that it has lost control of.

I think the approval floodgates would open once Apple is done with the OS 3.0 bottleneck. They probably didn't want the app updates by everyone adding to their woes.

I guess I've seen about 5 updates recently and I have around 80 apps.
I seem to remember getting 3.0 updates as far as two or three weeks back, though.
Anyway, I guess Apple must have a lot of updates to approve right about now.
