The article discussed how Apple has recently changed the terms of its iPhone Software Development Kit (SDK) to allow companies to offer certain promotional games on applications.

Although Apple’s new SDK may give developers more freedom to develop promotional applications, that freedom is limited by a patchwork of laws across all 50 states.
