Ritesh, it must be a change in the 10.1 build for the Python 3.2 runtime.

I've just submitted updated versions of Battery Guru and Fuel Traqker, 
built with only .pyc files. I also had a friend test a copy of White 
Noise built this way on 10.1 and sure enough, it works just fine.

It's not a bad thing to ship .pyc files at this point (if there's no 
risk of them changing to 3.3 any time soon) but I do worry that this 
change might disable certain functionality that would be useful in some 
apps, specifically compiling dynamically generated code.

I'll explore more once/if I can get a 10.1 simulator going, or if get a 
Dev Alpha C.
