I was recently in a situation where I had access to only port 80.
This means that RDP (port 3389) doesn't work... Amazon EC2 APNS demo was out.
Even local APNS was out, because it uses port 2195 from the sending server...
So, I decided to retrofit my APNS server and make it a DataSnap server responding to port 80 in addition to being a client I can click a button on using RDN to Amazon EC2.
I created a server method SendPushNotification. It takes the DeviceToken and the text message ...
Since I'm using a third party component for In-App Purchasing, I'm not sure where this bug is, but it seems that SKRequest.start crashes when there is no connectivity to the Internet in general (or to the AppStore in particular).
My solution is to check for reachability to the AppStore, because that's what we really care about. I'm using Indy for a multi-platform solution (as opposed to iOS APIs).
I offer the following code up as a solution. Tear it apart... ;)

The CodeRage Mobile conference Day 1st is almost finished. I'm listening to last sessions from Anders Ohlsson. Few hours ago I have been doing my own session "Create iOS Applications that Work with Enterprise Web Services and Multi-tier Architectures" and promised to share the source code from my demos. I have uploaded it to Embarcadero Code Central.

I'm feeling like a kid in a candy story when I get new stuff into the AppStore! :)
Nothing like a little Candy Crush Saga while watching the time fly away as you develope super cool FireMonkey apps for iOS using Delphi XE4!
Anders' Analog Clock with iAds
/Enjoy!...
Simon Choi has a beta version of his iAd wrapper for Delphi XE4 for iOS.
Very cool. I decided to take it for a spin, and it works in development mode on my device.
As a final test, I submitted an update of my Analog Clock app. If you're one of 1,900 people who have tried it, you should see the update (if approved) soon.
