Isn't the purpose of dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier: of reusing tableview's objects? I've used this in the past and it never failed me. The documentation says "For performance reasons, a table view's data source should generally reuse UITableViewCell objects when it assigns cells to rows in its tableView:cellForRowAtIndexPath: method". So, that's what I'm using. Of course, I have 2 different cells for the 2 sections and I can't understand why it doesn't work. Right now, I have 4 cells in section 2 but in the future, I might have dozens of cells representing dozens of entries. I cannot possibly create a different cell for each row, can I?
