Maybe if you are going to slag someone off you should be bothered looking for the tweet you base your slander on...


Fair enough. I tried now but that was months ago and Twitter search is unhelpful.

However, he's being asked by multiple people right now for the radar# and he's ignoring the questions. He just said he's known it for two weeks, which might have been too late for Apple to fix it anyway.


Yeah, one thing I don't understand is Marco had access to dev builds of iOS for months and iCloud dev access I presume. Why he only found about it now instead of doing something about it all this time?


Probably because, like most developers, he has separate development devices that he only uses for development. So he probably never ran into storage constraint limits while just testing Instapaper.

As an example, I have a 32GB iPod Touch that I've been using for all of the iOS5 testing for my applications and I'm only using around 600MB total. I'd never run into this issue either unless I loaded this up with tons of other apps and movies and music.


That's incorrect, he stated on his podcast that he's used iOS5 on his main device since WWDC.

Whether he hits the limit regularly or not is another question...
