Querying iOS AppStore for App Information?

I want to have a listing of iOS apps within another iOS app. The individual items of the listing then link back to the AppStore for each app. No problem there.

I also want to be able to get app specific information -- App Name, description, URL to the app's icon -- by querying the AppStore with an App ID. Is this possible?

If you simply want to display the apps for a specific developer, then SKStoreProductViewController might do the trick without the need to do any parsing.
