The Emporer's new software

Posted by utzy

I love the world of tech I really do. Get this for a little snippit of fun news. Armin Henrich a developer for the new iPhone app store made a little app called I Am Rich that had no features than to merely display an image of a glowing red ruby on your phone, he priced it at $999 and has believe it or not sold 8 copies before Apple pulled the app after a complaint.

But as Armin puts it he did not unknowingly sell something to anyone who did not read the profile - it's a work of art with no hidden features all.

One red faced purchaser has tried to blame the fact he bought it on his wife saying she had installed one click on their computer...
