Post subject:  iOS App Stores

We provide apps for our customers. These are "private" apps, they aren't for general consumption - they are custom written for the customer.

The customers are often small and don't have a coporate iTunes Store (that costs $300 a year). The cost of the corporate store for 1 app for 1 iPad doesn't make sense.

Officially we can't run a corporate store and add customer iPads to "our" business.

Is there another way around this?

Can you jailbreak the iPads to install what you want?

Your company buys the iPads then rents them to the customer with the app so they can be loaded from your corporate account?

I also thought about that as a possibility... At the moment, they buy an iPad and pay us for the module for their ERP system (which includes the App). Given that the iPad is used in the pig sty at a slaughter house (it is in a Griffin IP67 and shock resistant case), renting might work out expensive. ;)
