Except you are allowed (and even, kinda, encouraged) to make your app
available in many places.
So how do you distinguish between "I got it from andappstore" or "I got it
for free from the developer" (both legit but not market) from "Joe copied it

As per the cupcake release it checks for the network if it is 3G or not
before allowing simultaneous CS and PS call.
I dont remember exactly from where it gets the network type though
You can better check in the cupcake release code. There is some API :)
