    I've forgotten the exact day...I could be confusing the date with No-More-Openfeint day.

    So...any answer?

    There is no more Openfeint since 14 December
    And the App Store Connect Shutdown is December 21-28. So you have a few more days to buy some games :)

    Wait, we can't buy any games/apps/music/movies after the lockdown?? I thought it was just for developers submitting.

    Yea I thought that as well. Devlopers can't do price changes on those days or update.

    You can make purchases during the lockdown, iirc. I wish the lockdown was today, I'm purchasing and dowloading somethin fierce.

    Lock it down before I spend all my money!

    Edit: saw that it was already mentioned that the store is open to customers. Apple, close down the moneymaker for a week? HA!

    Devlopers can't do price changes, can't add games, or updates. Apple robots/employees take a week or two off

    Ah, thank you. If I was an apple robot, I'd want a week or two off. I'm a normal robot, and I still want a week or two off...
