So, of course Apple wants another 300 bucks, what's new. You don't get to be
the richest company in the US by not being greedy, and certainly developers
are a good source of revenue. OK, fine. Now, first thing it turns out you
also need, is a D&B rating (Dunn & Bradstreet) and they can give you that
for another $500. Thankfully, our small company has been in business long
enough to know D&B ratings are necessary and we already have one.
Next, Apple's asking to fax them our Articles of Incorporation. So, I sent
them copies, but they can't validate them because they can't see the seal
well enough in the copies. So, now we need to send them other legal
documents-- they'll forward me a list of what ELSE they will need. We're now
past 30 days into this and they tell me we're in the 'middle' of the process
and can't tell me when they will anoint us with their blessings of an
Enterprise license. Who knows, when, if ever, that will be.
The more I work as an Apple developer, the more frustrating it becomes.
Their penchant for making things as difficult as possible just never stops.
Perhaps you found the simplifying solution in your opening:
...and for Android we'll need..hmmm. zippo.
Just build and deploy on Android (sweet!)
;)
If only Google can get things better together on the Android side of things.
Given that for nearly every person who chooses iOS two choose Android,
it looks like it's off to a reasonably good start:
Google's Android operating system (OS) continued to dominate
U.S. smartphone market share, accounting for 52 percent of
units sold in the second quarter (Q2) of 2011. Like Android,
Apple's iPhone OS (iOS) experienced slight quarterly gain
rising to 29 percent in Q2.
