Seems a hit harsh as we are not able to buy the device until the end of this month in the UK.

Anyone else get this type of email?

Thank you for submitting Astro Adventure to the App Store. We've reviewed your application and determined that we cannot post this version of your iPad application to the App Store. Applications must adhere to the iPad Human Interface Guidelines as outlined in the iPhone Developer Program License Agreement section 3.3.5.

The iPad Human Interface Guidelines state that an iPad application should be able to run in all orientations. Astro Adventure is only supporting one variant of the landscape orientation. While we understand there are certain applications that need to run in the landscape orientation, it would be appropriate to support both variants of this orientation in your application.

Please note that supporting all four orientations, each with unique launch images, provides the best user experience and is recommended.

    Many thanks. I will wait until I bag an iPad this month and then do full tests for all rotations and add a few more levels. It would be really nice if apple would offer registered developers a chance to get the device before launch.

    On the package issue, I thought it was just me :-) I keep getting "Receiving project" message during publish and it hangs. Like you said, 4 out of 5 times it can do this before it comes back ok.
