Being unique but only in black and white.

Apple created the iPhone for users who can customize the interface of their phone by adding apps and themes. But you can only choose from Black or White for the exterior designs.

Drawing Cash

Charles Forman who is the founder of OMGPOP game maker company got rich over night from his blow-out game Draw Something. Zynga currently bought out OMGPOP for $180 mill.

Most people were ‘creeped out’ about this, especially Christians, who say they will no longer be playing the game because it is against their own beliefs. The game has lost users because of this act.

iPhoneographers

Nikon and Canon are planning to put out camera lens’ for your iPhone. With the high quality images already coming from the iPhone, why not add a 105mm lens to it? Do you think this will catch onto iPhone users, or make photographers switch to an iPhone just for the accessibility?

Apple is taking on a new role in the way of selling their products by adding a mini-store into stores, such as Target, to raise sales. Is this ‘fair’ to competing brands that don’t have booths in other stores? Will it make people buy more Apple gadgets?
