Bad news for those of you who've been drooling to play
Peggle on the iPhone. As you may have noticed, it
didn't come out in March as we were originally told. The good news is that our friends at Joystiq have gotten a new date for the addictive PopCap game's release on the App Store, and it's close.
The game will be out, we're being told, on May 12th. There's no price given yet, but we're with Joystiq on this one too: it probably won't be as low at 99 cents. At $9.99, it would probably be worth it (Peggle is awesome) but pricey -- we're guessing the price will end up right around $4.99.
Joystiq's been playing the game too (lucky peg-hitters), and while they are saving their full impressions for an upcoming review, they hint that the game won't disappoint. We can't wait -- even though Peggle is pretty much everywhere already,
from the Mac to
Xbox Live to the classic iPod and even in
World of Warcraft, there's still room for a little portable Peggle in our lives.

I'm curious how they can predict when it will be available. My experience with my own apps (and the consensus on the forums) is that the approval process is unpredictable and you get no advanced notice of approval.

Why do you speculate that the i(cell)PhonePodtouch version will cost twice as much as the current iPod version?

I remember when I got the Touch before the app store was out I was really hoping that the 3rd gen nano games would work, of course that was not true. It must be amazing given how long it has taken.
