A Charlie Brown Christmas now available for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch
Jeff, you may be right. Since Core Data has been used in lots of applications both on iOS and OS X, it would be sispruring if it were a bug, but the samples seemed to indicate that it should work. I've seen plenty of comments about the variable quality of Apple's code samples, though.
