About a week ago we got word that they were back to reviewing our app, after we corrected an error in the description. Since then we have received no news, and we can only assume that the sheer awesomeradness of TWIDDLE has captivated the reviewers. So, Apple, please stop playing our game and finish your review process.

Stay tuned…
