Beta Builder is not a barn burner when it comes to sales but people seem to find it useful so that's gratifying. It's not really documented but you can customize the HTML template that BB uses... It's in ~/Library/Application Support/BetaBuilder for iOS Apps and if you change it, you won't have to adjust the HTML each time. I'm actually in SoCal but yup, I do have a travel app, Vegas Mate. I've been doing Vegas tourism stuff for a long time ; on the Web before iOS. Thanks Mark.

I do custom mobile app development and your app is great for setting up the initial OTA deployment directory on our public facing web server for our client demos. I make a few changes to the resulting index file (mainly I strip out the second download link, add some php code to grab the filetime attributes from the ipa file so it dynamically updates the "Last Updated" line and I remove the "created with beta builder" line...) I'm sure I'll eventually download the source and make it do everything I want it to do with a single click through the GUI, but like every other developer, there just aren't enough hours in the day... And besides, if I had started with source I wouldn't have ponied up the dough to try and support another dev. (as insignificant an amount as it may be) P.S. I notice your apple dev account is "Vegas Media Group" and you're above successful app example is for..... Vegas.... do you live in the area? If so I'll buy a you a beer some time! Hunter,

I think the people scare the mac app store because it's pricey, the same software, listed 30% cheaper on author website, why should they pay more? Hey man, interesting write up.
