Apple Pulls $1,000 iPhone App

August 12, 2008 | ISSUE 44•33

An application called "I Am Rich," which displays a ruby on iPhone screens, was pulled from the phone's application store without notice. What do you think?

Now what the hell am I gonna do with all this money?

Richard Billinglsy

I guess Apple doesn't want to be associated with the rich.

I would blow $1,000 on a status symbol from Apple, but I wouldn't buy that application for it.
