    Yeah, the bastards won't approve my identity because I'm not 18 yet. Fair dinkum, I'm 17 & 1/4 but noooooo... So no app submissions, but even worse, no phone unlock! (and ChevronWP7 isn't working, even though I got the files before they locked down ;) ) I'm just wondering if someone wouldn't mind shouting me one of their device slots (all developers get 3) until I'm able to validate my account (should be able to do that in November). My idea is to do it over remote assistance: you'd just need to put in your email/password. That way I don't need to know them. I'm hoping someone would be generous enough for this, as now that I finally got a phone (Friday arvo), I've realised just how inadequate the emulator is at showing the real look of the app! That and I want to make an app or two for myself to use (I'm not paying $1.30 for sudoku! :P ) Thanks!

    Don't forget to rate my post if it helped! ;) "He has no enemies, but is intensely disliked by his friends." "His mother should have thrown him away, and kept the stork." "There's nothing wrong with you that reincarnation won't cure." "He loves nature, in spite of what it did to him."

      So you spent, how much?, $100 + $X/month for a phone and you don't want to spend $1.30 for an app?

      If you truly believe you need to pick a mobile phone that "says something" about your personality, don't bother. You don't have a personality. A mental illness, maybe, but not a personality. [Charlie Brooker] ScrewTurn Wiki, Continuous Localization and My Startup

        The developer account was free, thanks to DreamSpark, and I just spent all my money (literally) getting the phone (outright). Anyway, that's not the point, just an incidental :P

          Lie and tell them you're 18.

          People are more violently opposed to fur than leather because it's safer to harass rich women than motorcycle gangs

            That requires me to submit a fake form of government id, which is slightly illegal, I gather.
