A good piece from info world on why Apple’s review of Apps submitted to the App Store is necessary (despite being flawed):
We’re not talking about computers here. We’re talking about phones: devices that need to be stable, responsive, and functional no matter what — and run on a network that soaks you if you exceed your allotted minutes or the number of text messages sent. We’re also talking about Apple, a company that goes to great pains to ensure quality control over the user experience. I’d be very upset if I downloaded an application that caused my phone to crash constantly or otherwise compromised the core functionality of the device. In contrast, I’ve already found several applications in the Android Market that either don’t function properly or crash frequently.
