Yes in theory that would be possible. However, since we don't have a pre-existing store already it would be near impossible to come up with one from scratch in this kind of time frame. And some kind of an adhoc store like paypaling the money and sending the pkg back in email would just be a way too big of an hassle.
Im sure theres money to be made on this game if they would just get the ovi store working properly again.. not sure whats taking so long.

Nice job with the pack. For practice I went through 11-21 even though they're all the same. ;-)

Im certainly not encouraging people to steal the thing. I dont know what OVI was going to charge for the game, but thought it would be about the same price. Ive been trying to buy it for a month now, and still intend to as soon as its available.

I dont have an iphone myself, but it certainly wasnt hard for my friend to extract the app from his jailbroken one. if that is considered cracking the game and not just the Phone/OS, then I certainly understand. I will delete the levels regardless, and I apologize. I had no idea the huge amount of pirated .ipa files floating around out there currently.
on another note, are there any plans to sell more levels for that N900 bounce game? from what Ive seen so far, Ill buy anything Rovio puts out for this thing. very impressive.

How to get them back. i do have on my plan to look at , btu given im trying to also build a new mythtv box at home , im not sure of my time scales. So in summary. Wont stop you playing the pack 2 levels, They will just copy over our ones. but it will mean you might have 3* in some of them already
Why don't simply resetting your scores to 0? That will remove all the 3 stars. And you can even remove the "completed" tag from a level, and the game will start just from the finishing of the free pack.

Miika & Rovio: The Angry Birds game is magnificent. Both I and my 4 year old daughter play it constantly. She's always bugging me, "Daddy, can I play piggies?" She has a real feel for ballistics already...
I want to register a vote for the suggestion made earlier in the thread: I also would really like a version of the game that has a "custom world" for user-created levels, so that I can keep the official levels and high scores pristine.
