,----[ Quote ]
| We've covered plenty of examples of Apple's rather arbitrary 
| decision/approval process for putting apps in the iPhone App Store -- 
| demonstrating a huge opportunity for other phone providers to be more open 
| and less ridiculous. We've also talked plenty about Trent Reznor and how Nine 
| Inch Nails is doing all sorts of unique things to connect with fans -- 
| including a fantastically well thought out iPhone app that got lots of 
| well-deserved attention.
