Can I show "small" 320x50 iAd banners on the iPad?

Since in my country there are very few (if any) iAd banners for iPad, I'd rather prefer to show those for iPhone. I know they are small and not optimized for the iPad, but at least they allow me to monetize even the iPad version of my app.

The requiredContentSizeIdentifiers property of ADBannerView accepts these values:

extern NSString * const ADBannerContentSizeIdentifier320x50;
extern NSString * const ADBannerContentSizeIdentifier480x32;
extern NSString * const ADBannerContentSizeIdentifierPortrait;
extern NSString * const ADBannerContentSizeIdentifierLandscape;

but the first two (ADBannerContentSizeIdentifier320x50 and ADBannerContentSizeIdentifier480x32) are deprecated.

If on the iPad I set ADBannerContentSizeIdentifierPortrait the banner size becomes 768x66.

Is it possible to show "small" 320x50 iAd banners on the iPad?

I don't think you can but I was reading this a couple of days ago:

Basically get your app 'signed up' to two ad streams so that there'll almost always be something displayed.

I haven't tried myself as I'm lucky enough with my fill rate but I hope it helps!
