Geoffrey.landis writes with a snippet from CNET reporting another example of offputting treatment at Apple's App Store: "'In this case, it's a dictionary app called Ninjawords (so called because ninjas are 'smart, accurate, and really fast') that was rejected three times over the course of two months, mostly because 'objectionable' words could be looked up and found in the dictionary's search function, Gruber reported.' PCWorld also reports the story." Note that the app was eventually approved, but only after a few go-rounds and changes.pa href="http://apple.slashdot.org/story/09/08/05/2034219/Apple-Balks-Finally-Relents-At-Possible-User-Queries-of-Dictionary-App?from=rss"img src="http://apple.slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?from=rssamp;op=imageamp;style=h0amp;sid=09/08/05/2034219"/a/ppa href="http://apple.slashdot.org/story/09/08/05/2034219/Apple-Balks-Finally-Relents-At-Possible-User-Queries-of-Dictionary-App?from=rss"Read more of this story/a at Slashdot./p pa href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/7HP8S6vFJ8pNTR_YSth1wSOT-NQ/0/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/7HP8S6vFJ8pNTR_YSth1wSOT-NQ/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/abr/ a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/7HP8S6vFJ8pNTR_YSth1wSOT-NQ/1/da"img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~at/7HP8S6vFJ8pNTR_YSth1wSOT-NQ/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"/img/a/pimg src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Slashdot/slashdotApple/~4/iJ3IbbA_yWw" height="1" width="1"/
