Is this possible? I would like to create a service that would make it easy for people to create Newsstand Magazines.
So in other words, they'd put in the content for the magazine in my service and I'd release it for them in the app store. Would this be possible, or would Apple say no to this? What do you think?
You'd have to release an app for each person that signs up. There is no way to automate this process and add apps to Newsstand (you would have to submit each app manually). The only possibility is to create a Newsstand app that downloads magazine info from your site, and then displays the various magazines to the user. However, Apple could reject the app since it mimics core system functionality, and it is a very unprofessional way for the magazines to reach their audience.

I haven't post my app to the app market yet, so i am just wondering if a user buys our app, would it be possible to charge him for every upgrade or every upgrade has to be free.
I ask this question because our company has to make the decision whether we keep adding more features to the app or we make different apps to do different things and charge our clients accordingly.
Thanks for reading.
No, you cannot (currently) charge for updates.
You might consider unlocking additional functionality using in-app purchase.
It depends on what you mean by 'update.'. In the case of maybe a database, dictionary-type, or even a game (possibly, though unlikely), app updating some kind of database (SQLite, XML, etc.) is allowed, but downloading code is a no-no as stated in the developer guidelines. If you must charge, the downloading of a database is the only possible way, otherwise in-apps will fill the gap.

I have created a webapp which is for iPhone. I need 2 helps.
App URL: http://classictutorials.com/ts/
How do i submit it to http://www.apple.com/webapps/ ?
Whats the best way to share with people who would be using it. Its a free app and neither am asking for any donation. So don't want to share across using money.
Apple adds the webapps on its own, and it didnt add anything to that list after 12/03/2010. So that is a stale list.
If you dont want to spend anything, you may want to advertise it on some forums, where they discuss about the problem your app could solve. Other than that you could try telling people, writing blogs about it or do a link exchange with other apps.

Has anybody tried to submit the same app with different name to the app store?
Assumed that the app is under the same iOS developer program account, and is not a lite version.
Thanks ^m^
Don't. You should not try to submit the same app under a different name to the App Store. It is not how the App Store works. As #Jeremiah said, there is a similar thread on StackOverflow: Can I submit the same app to the App Store under multiple, different accounts/identities? and in it, #bobwaycott notes that the App Store Guidelines state:
2.20 Developers "spamming" the App Store with many versions of similar
apps will be removed from the iOS
Developer Program
Yes, all you have to do is to copy your project to a different location, and rename it:

It will be treated as a different project with configuration rewritten by xcode.

There are a lot of useful apps already available in the app store and I don't want to reinvent them just because i think they'd be useful to be part of my app. So I'm wondering whether it is possible to sell them from within my app, whereby the user can purchase them without leaving the comfy confines of my app. Any idea about this? Or will the user always have to head over to the App Store to get their hands on them?
On a side note, it would be nice if i could get some commission for selling them within my app (can't imagine Apple would allow that though).
No this is not possible. Best you can do is redirect the user to the app store app from within your app to the app the user wants more info on.
That's a question for Apple. You might check out Apple's In App Purchase Programming Guide.

Watching their video and browsing their site, it looks like I have to do some kind of mouse olympics to publish an app. I want to publish an app to the App Store for as little money as possible, without using "hacks". Is there any way to do this, and does Apple allow it?
They seem to have posted the names of several apps using their SDK, and apps in the App store are required to include developer contact info. Write a few of the developers of recent apps using their toolchain, and see if any of their replies give you enough confidence.
