I went through the same process with FarFinder's iPhone client. (For those who don't know, FarFinder lets you access the files on your Mac from your iPhone or a web browser, and presents a Finder-like view.)

FarFinder gives you a choice of Macs to connect to and, similar to Airfoil ST, displayed an image of the appropriate Mac model using much the same mechanism.

Note the past tense. To get through the review process, I had to remove not only the delivery of Mac images, but also Apple-authored file icons: application icons, standard folder icons, etc, even though these weren't contained in the application but delivered over the network. Consequently the overall quality of the user experience is reduced on the iPhone. Oh good.

I made the network-delivery argument (VLC) and the favoritism argument (other apps do the same thing) but met the same mindless stonewalling.

Needless to say I now won't touch the damned platform with a barge-pole for core business activities. (FarFinder's iPhone app is only part of the product, and I'm not ready to give it up.)
