title: Custom Apple Push Notification Server vs Urban Airship and likings
body: <p>I need to implement the push notifications for one of my projects. Some of the possibilities I evaluated are:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>building my own APN sending script on the server</li>
  <li>using Urban Airship</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Which one would you guys recommend and why?</p>
  
  <p>NB. I know Urban Airship costs a bit, but assume that the 1 mil free notifications are enough for me.</p>
