    I snagged it before it got yanked. Pretty funny, but also pretty basic. No options at all.

    Straight from irwegoapp.com

    "Rwego!
    Due to the unexpected huge success of the application, I'm removing it from sale. Indeed I wanted at least to refund my iPhone Developer Program, but recent articles published on several websites as CNET, Cult Of Mac or Gizmodo will certainly increase sales drastically . In order to avoid conflict with Nintendo, I prefer to simply remove it from the AppStore. Thanks for your comprehension. "

    @vkramer: Sadly, that letter will do little if Nintendo decides they want most or all of whatever money he made on the app while it was up.

    Took me awhile to get why "iRwego" was a clever name.

    I get it now.

    @sam: Don't say 'i'Rwego like you normally would. (I rwego)

    Combine the 'i' and 'r' to get 'ir' (ear) then the wego (we go).

    ir we go... "Here we go".

    @appletoad: Installous is for losers. Anyone who supports it is a loser. Most app store developers are independent developers who have to foot the $100 dev fee out-of-pocket. Stop being a loser, pay for your apps.

    I HIGHLY doubt that this was about money. To be honest 16,000 dollars really isn't an insane amount of money even in this economy. Im sure he wanted it cause he wanted it and thats that.

    Well, Fred and Ben Savage needed a way to make some money. But they refuse to sell the PowerGlove, from what I understand.

    i feel like the LA audiences are not as bright as Conan's NY audiences. maybe that's why i could never watch Leno because he 'dumbed' down his show to meet their needs.
