Title: SureFire Shot Timer iPhone app - Free
Post by: Boulderlaw on November 17, 2008, 10:59:45 AM

What can I say, it works and its free (for a limited time). If you have an iPhone you now have a shot timer.

I downloaded it and it works for me or at least it does when I tap silverware on the kitchen counter. 

It even works on my Generation 1 iPhone as a Shot Time (http://shootingsportsblog.com/bulletboy/iphone-shot-timer/)

Mine picked up a bloke a few benches down shooting a 243, however the phone was next to the .22

Apple Rejects iPhone Application That Lets Users Jiggle Breasts

A YouTube clip of how the 'iBoobs' application would have looked on an iPhone.

Apple's online App Store has decided it'd rather not be stacked with an iPhone application that lets users jiggle a pair of breasts.

The "iBoobs" application was rejected because Apple deemed it "objectionable content," the U.K.'s Register tech blog reported.

"If you believe that you can make the necessary changes so that iBoobs does not violate the iPhone SDK Agreement we encourage you to do so," Apple reportedly told the creator, Mystic Game Development of Rotterdam in the Netherlands.

The iBoobs application is a computer animation of a large pair of breasts in a bikini top. Shaking the iPhone makes them wobble from side to side, or up and down, depending on the movement.

The company likely developed it to demonstrate character animation middleware, the Register theorized. Mystic's main business is developing 3-D rendering engines for video-game developers.

An earlier application for DOS-based PCs offered a similar function but with the use of a mouse, so Apple may have been worried more about copyright infringement than about offending buyers.

Since when are jiggling breasts "objectionable content"?

Maybe I would buy an iPhone if it had jiggling boobs on it.
