Kiwi is a four letter word

With the launch of the "NZiPhone.com and NZMac.com News" app, I spotted an odd bug in iTunes. The word "Kiwi" was being censored (for want of a better term) within iTunes, being displayed as "K**i". This wasn't just a bug for my app's description, but all uses of the term within iTunes. As you'll see from the two images, it even extended to an app with the name Kiwi.

The good news is that after contacting the iTunes team, the issue has been resolved. "Kiwi" is still a four letter word...just not one considered more colourful than it really is.
