My iPad App Will Include a Twitter Widget. Will Apple or Twitter Have Issues With This Usage?

Question

For the iPad imaging app I am writing I have include the ability to email a friend or send a Twitter tweet for world-of-mouth marketing. Here is what my Twitter widget currently looks like:

Am I asking for trouble by using the Twitter logo in this manner? Will this send up a red flag in the Apple app approval process?

Thanks,
Doug

Try checking out Twitter's guidelines for their logo: http://help.twitter.com/entries/77641-guidelines-for-use-of-the-twitter-trademark

Especially the section reading:

Merchandise/Manufactured Items Please note that we generally don’t permit use of our marks on merchandise.

Do: Contact us at trademarks at twitter.com with a detailed proposal if you would like to request an exception.
