    Apple has told me that Notification Center widgets on iOS cannot perform any calculations, and the current PCalc widget must be removed.

        @siegel @jamesthomson I wonder what the reaction would be if Apple forbid calculators in Dashboard (Mac) when it debuted in 2005.

        @jamesthomson That really sucks. Good luck with your appeal and keep at them. They do sometimes back down. Ask @donmcallister.

        @jamesthomson That's awful. Sorry to hear and I hope someone with more authority (and sense) reverses the decision.

        @ChuckLaTournous Thanks. I got the impression the decision was made pretty high up, but we'll see!

        @jamesthomson wat. That's ridiculous. This is my single favorite widget and one reason I shelledoutt $10 for it :( Goddamn you Apple.

        @jdlien Re PCalc, one option: install PCalc Lite. Use that as a widget and don’t update the app. Keep PCalc current.

        @CraigGrannell @jamesthomson Will you keep the number display and shortcut for launching into the app? That part is already pretty handy.

        @jdlien @CraigGrannell Yes, I’ll do something like that, not sure what yet.
