Phil Schiller’s Response to Steven Frank’s iPhone Boycott

Steven Frank boycotted iPhone, since he was disappointed (to say the least) about the way Apple rejects or approve applications for the iPhone. Not to put words in someone else’s mouth, but basically, Steven’s opinion is that Apple neglects iPhone developers with the way the App Store and its approval process is constructed.

Steven is most famous for being one of the two co-founders of Panic Inc. – a software company, who develops software for Mac OS.

Because he was so dissatisfied with the way the App Store works, he simple ditched his iPhone in favour of a Palm Pre. He wrote a blog post about this.

Later, this happened.

stevenf:

[…]I checked the inbox on my Android phone and found myself staring at the words “Philip Schiller”.

Needless to say, I had a minor freakout.[…]

This is the more incredible aspect of all this: No one less than Apple’s own Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing – Phil Schiller – personally replied Steven.
