@Almightywhacko: I bought one for use when I spend a long time typing.

@norazi: Fucking genius man. I can't believe no one's made that hilarious smarmy remark yet.

@Hearthatvoiceagain: As soon as you say "requires you to have permissions" the vast majority of cell phone users don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

@talkingstove: I would, except Apple took care of that. They e-mailed everyone eligible with a link to an App that orders it in 2 clicks.

Pretty shocking how sitting in the sun can make something hot.

@Hearthatvoiceagain: The vast majority of consumers prefer simple products. I don't know why this is so hard for you to grasp or why you took it like a personal insult.

@OgilvyTheAstronomer: Not at all.

@Origamido: It's still not app-scraping info.

@Hearthatvoiceagain: I'm sorry you got all butt hurt about a simple concept of marketing, but the fact of the matter is if you require users to do more than use the product at hand, it's a failure.

@pz: What's so hard about it?

@espinha: Yes, I can.

@Origamido: I could be wrong, but IIRC that issue had to do with actual iTunes accounts being hacked via keyloggers and used to buy apps to push them to the top rather than an App actually stealing information?

All of the people screaming "it tells you what it wants access too prior, you should know better" forgot that the vast majority of people are stupid and not nerds, like us.

@Hearthatvoiceagain: Asking users to do work = failed business model.

@Odin: Problem is, most people treat this like all the crap prior to installing an application on a computer.

@pz: They check more than you think they do.

@pixelsnader: Erm, not really a fair comparison. Apple sells Apple. They have no reason to cater to anyone who didn't buy Apple.

@espinha: I can hold my iPhone 4 however the hell I want and not lose bars, too.

@selianth: Damn. I was hoping I could just get the one on the front and rip off the others.

@Quasigizmodo: True enough, but that seemed more like a necceassy boulder to roll, as the ignorant thought only the iPhone had it and believed it was a serious issue.
