February 27th: Score! Pulled From App Store
Due to the lack of any foreseeable timeframe for the source feed for Score! coming back online, we have decided to remove Score! from the App Store rather than continue to sell an admittedly neutered product. Score! will remain unavailable for purchase until this source feed comes back online or a suitable, alternative feed is arranged. If you purchased Score! and feel you have not received a useful product, you can either contact Apple for a refund or email us and we will gift you the iTunes song of your choice (99¢ please). Thank you and please accept our sincerest apologies.Tell Us What You Think
We already have some ideas for what to include in the next versions of our apps but if you think you have a great idea too, please let us know by emailing us or posting a comment in our forums. We look forward to hearing your thoughts on how we can make our apps even better.Apple, the Apple logo, and iPod are trademarks of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries. iPhone is a trademark of Apple Inc.
