There's a pretty cool application environment out there called NSBasic (www.nsbasic.com) that you can write apps for pretty much any of the phone / tablet platforms (iOS, Android, etc.). It emits apps in Javascript that can run on those devices and also, apparently, allows you deploy to the "stores" through something called "Phone Gap". Using this platform you can "sideload" apps by just giving the potential user a URL where they can download the app or, like I said, you can deal with the App Stores.
I've only written relatively simple applications with it, but I'm pretty impressed with what it seems to be capable of. Much lighter-weight than using all the other technologies, a really interesting approach. Check it out. It's also not very expensive. (Like $100 or something - it was $99 when I bought it a few years ago and they keep it updated). These guys at NSBasic really seem to have pulled off something here. You can get versions that will run in Windows and OSX.
Incidentally, I don't have anything to gain here - I don't work for them.

It's just CYA verbiage that the lawyers put in there to give the store owners a legal wedge in case they need to pull a piece of software.
Any time that you see something that is not objectively verifiable in an SLA/Usage Agreement, that's usually the purpose in my experience.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

I hate them. It's like they are torturing you. No hurt fillings. Peace!

Especially when they look down in the mouth.

Of course; The poor dentists can only live hand to mouth!
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

When I enter the dentists office I always tell him he better not hurt me because I'm the eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth kind of guy.

Yes. That's the molar of the story.

When it comes to dentists, some say NO, I say N2O!
