It's a wigglytuff of an accident for Apple and its app store.
An unfortunate logo which has somehow made it onto the Apple App Store appears to be a Freudian slip.
After years of Apple kicking its fanboy base with its autocratic and expensive gizmos, it appears that one app developer has finally come clean with what he thinks of them.
Its latest application for the Iphone is a product called Icount which seems innocent enough, if not a bit challenging for the average fanboy.
However the logo that accompanies the product seems to be arranged in a way so that the letter 'o' is dropped.Of course his must be an accident, after all Apple has made a big thing about how it does not allow swearing in its Iphone Apps.
Quite how it failed to notice a logo with the rudest word in the English language smack bang in the middle of the front page of Itunes is beyond us.
We conclude that Apple is trying to tell its users something, subliminally.
UpdateSeems that the folks at Cupertino have noticed the error of their ways and have removed the (potentially) offending article from the front page. We'd love to see the email from Apple to the developer.
