    but, what they aren't telling you is, of those 100,000 apps:
    18, 762 are fart apps
    27,984 are repackaged facebook and myspace games
    52,136 are generic match-3 clones of bejeweled or collapse
    1,115 are educational and designed for students
    3 are actually used more than 5 days after download/purchase #appstore

    @asten77: Arguing in a thread like this with a troll like Zuniga populating it, is just stupid. How can i feel threatened, i have a device that i love a ton and use constantly to do all kinds of things. The people who feel threatened are the people who start threads like this one, the way the OP did.

    In my line of work there is just so much mis-information that causes a good amount of damage, so it pisses me off when i see ridiculous FUD being spread like this. #appstore

    In reply to iPhone Ebooks: The New Fart Apps
    If anyone here buys an app that consists of one single book and nothing else for any price above free, I will stab your iPhone through the screen. I am not even kidding.

    Get an e-reader app, and buy books for it. An entire app for one book is a friggin' waste of space. #iphoneebooks
