This is crap. I am ready to go Android (although this will obviously not help me get an App). I also do not know how they could allow money management applications and not this. I also do not think it is an "intermediate" currency. It is currency.
Keep up the good fight! I am still planning on making a donation once I can buy up some bitcoins (through the roof right now!)

Following Apple response I've uploaded the entire updated source for the App at https://github.com/udibr/bitcoinApp
Please send me updates using github pull request.
Thanks, Udi

Good enough for now, then. Thanks for being so cool with everything. You really do have top notch support, too...especially for a noob such as myself. 
Plus, since it's open source, those of us with the iPhone SDK can compile it ourselves and save a beta license for somebody else
there is no need to jailbreak - I can add up to 100 people on the "beta" program
and other developers can do the same

That really sucks. I would consider jailbreaking my phone (*gasp*) for functionality in this realm. Apple really sucks in this regard...though I've been very happy with the hardware.
I've been extremely happy with the beta (though, in all honesty, I use it mostly for checking my wallet balance in bed).
Good luck getting this sorted.

I've posted this to Apple:
"As part of your testing, you have transfered 0.5 bitcoin from the server I supplied you to your account. Current value in USD is about 1.5 please send the 0.5 bitcoin back to the server's address. Its either bitcoins dont have value and in this case the App should be approved or they do have value and in this case send me the half bitcoin back.
I would like to get from you some details on in what way this App is different from Venmo, Paypal, Square, among others."

I was called by a person from Apple: App was rejected by Apple because "...it involves intermediate currency..."
I've asked why Apps such as PayPal and Venmo are accepted and he replied that he "does not have time to elaborate"
I then asked if they allow just a console to a remote node (not located on iPhone) and he said that this will also be an App that involves intermediate currency and there for will not be allowed...

I continue to update my changes to bitcoin code at https://github.com/udibr/bitcoin
I will have to decide what to do with the App part, once I get an answer from Apple

I've already submitted a more advance version of it (1.0.2) to Apple.
The latest message I got from them on April 25 was "...review process will require additional time..."

Would anyone have an issue with me going through the code on this and releasing it on the app store?

In the latest release 0.0.13 I have added the option to connect to a remote bitcoin server/daemon.
So you can have your bitcoin machine running in the cloud and connect to it while on the move.

Just registered my iPhone 3G :]
I'd be worried about this trashing the battery life and/or internal storage. BitCoin is super read/write heavy during the indexing phase. The software wasn't really designed with mobiles in mind. Startup time in particular is going to be "not excellent" even after the block chain is fully downloaded. It takes several seconds even on a high end MacBook, and architecturally that's hard to fix.
However it's definitely a good way to test what Apples reviewer team thinks of it.

if you want to join, signup and register your device (two different button presses) so I will be able to update the version with your unique device number (UDID)
For now there is a long time after starting the App in which you get an Error message on some of the screens, so just wait a little bit or just move around between the pages until the App starts to work.
Again, this is a test program, so the Apps wallet may be lost in future versions (be careful)

0.0.5 crashes on iPhone 3G. Working on it
No problem, I'll build a new version which goes back to iOS 4.0 (going back to 3.1.3 will really limit what I can do.)
So PLEASE register your devices for testing if you havent done so already at http://bit.ly/g4FNZX .
Its not enough to signup for the site, you need to register your device
Thanks, Udi

Great... I have an iPhone 3G. Guess mine isn't supported..?
That's just stupid.

Meh, Now I see on the Testflight app, that a build is available, but it's only compatible with iOS 4.3, which is beyond me (4.2.1 was the latest version to run on older iPhones).
