Overview

Represents an iPhone (or other APN enabled device). An APN::Device can have many APN::Notification.

In order for the APN::Feedback system to work properly you MUST touch the last_registered_at column everytime someone opens your application. If you do not, then it is possible, and probably likely, that their device will be removed and will no longer receive notifications.

Example:

Device.create(:token => '5gxadhy6 6zmtxfl6 5zpbcxmw ez3w7ksf qscpr55t trknkzap 7yyt45sc g6jrw7qz')
