Passing The Mustard (Gas)


Apparently Zach was not the only child who received an iPod Touch from Santa this year. Sales of this device skyrocketed during the holiday season and drove several more "childlike" games to the top of the iTunes store sales charts.

Case in point: The best selling application in the entire iTunes store right after Christmas was "iFart Mobile", a utility that is best described by it's marketing material:

"Previously you had to carry three separate devices: a phone, an iPod, AND an electronic fart generator. Now they have all been combined into one glorious device."

Now, remember, the iTunes store has huge sales volume. Huge. They have sold hundreds of millions of applications in the last few months.

Fart generators, at 99 cents a "pop", are big business.
