The iPhone i'm developing with (building the application to, not installed via ad-hoc) receives push notifications as it should. I've got an application that just sends dummy push notifications on command, and the dev iphone receives them consistently. However, I've distributed a beta build under the release configuration to several co-workers, and none of these builds of the app have received a single push notification. I've confirmed that the app prompts the user on first run for permission to receive push notifications, and I've also confirmed that everyone has answered "yes" to this prompt. Has anyone else experienced this problem? I feel like it has something to do with provisioning, but the apple developer portal is so vague about things, I very well could be missing something important.

Looks like I missed the part in apples push documentation where it states that apps distributed via ad-hoc use the apple production push gateway, not the apple dev push gateway. I was under the assumption that while developing the application, I always wanted to use the "development" push gateway...but that's what I get for using common sense.
