iPad icon size ≠ iPhone icon size

Ipad_curling_icons

Just noticed our iPhone icon looked funny when run on the iPad.  It seems, at least on the simulator, the iPad app icon size is 72px, different from the 57px on the iPhone.  Here's a screenshot of how the 57px icon looks against a 72px icon.

iPad beta SDK cannot compile iPhone apps for distribution

Cross-posted here.

Learned this the hard way... if you upgrade your Xcode to the iPad beta (iphone_sdk_3.2_beta_with_xcode_3.2.2.dmg), you cannot compile iPhone projects in distribution mode, even if you set the target device to 3.0/3.1.  I'm not 100% certain what build configuration flag is causing this to fail, but it compiles just fine in my other configurations and I can even run the non-distribution mode build on an emulator.  In distro mode the build always craps out with 18 C++ errors (similar to this).  It's possible that the issue is also related to the fact that I recently migrated to a new macbook, but I had already reinstalled Xcode so I can't imagine that being the issue.

I just downgraded my Xcode to the latest non iPad version (iphone_sdk_3.1.3_with_xcode_3.2.1__snow_leopard__10m2003a) to confirm this, and was finally able to submit version 1.0.2 of Cool Curlings.
