  • JoeHobot says
    you mean DA as Paris Hilton?
  • Headsvett says
    you heard it from chris pirillo first, but yah wtf
  • codearachnid says
    that's pretty clever - it's worth seeing is someone would bite
  • Cassiopoeia
    I will bet someone has purchased it.
  • NickEntrepreneur says
    just another pointless piece of crap for the world to buy
  • JoeHobot says
    Headsvett no I saw it on Digg first, I don't listen or go to chris pirillo :-)
  • dropcase says
    I think it also says, "I am an arse." (g_thinking)
  • JoeHobot says
    I mean instead of giving $1000 for something good , people really buy this crap? Kudos to developer!
  • Chris Kilian says
    I feel my leg being pulled, nothing more.
  • AdamSherk says
    i bought 3, just because I can
  • AdamSherk says
    just to be clear that not actually true :-)
  • Headsvett says
    wll ok, but it says lockergnome in the corner, but i guess thats from the guy who dugg it
  • Olivia Bell says
    I'm gonna sound like an idiot... but what is it anyway?
  • NickEntrepreneur says
    it's an iphone app that is basically a picture
  • JoeHobot says
    Olivia its just plain picture of red diamond that is selling for 999.99 on App store for Iphone or Ipod Touch.
  •  Wez.me  says
    I'm gonna copy the image and create an iPhone app and give it away for $1, I wonder how many more sales I would make.
  • NickEntrepreneur says
    the ironic thing is, the more we talk about it, the more likely it is that someone will buy on and make this guy richer! (s_unsure)
  • Olivia Bell says
    Apologises, I meant "What is red diamond?"
  • Madame Maracas thinks
    that stupidity and ignorance have a price, apparently $ 999!
  • DominaParadiso says
    Correction: The icon will help that dipshit stay rich.
  • Madame Maracas
    I figured it was a ruby not a "red diamond" but then again, I"m not dumb or rich enough to find out. LOL
  • AnatomyAds
    It's a good marketing ploy for getting people to look at his other apps.
  • Madame Maracas
    I figure it's like over pricing land 3 x's over market in SL, not expecting it to sell, but if it does BONANZA! (worked for me once)
  • BigO says
    well, if he even sells one then he's pretty well set!
  • Te-ge
    doubts anyone who purchases this will stay rich
  • Madame Maracas thinks
    status symbols are for the insecure those that truly have status don't need symbols, they know, & those that need to know it do too
  • jeflin says
    marketing ploy but you have to hand it to them.
  • Madame Maracas
    hands them the spoof of the year award, they can collect it for a small fee of $ 2,000 ! (g_lol)
  • Nunya☠B says
    Emperor's New Clothes is all it is. BTW copying the pix and selling is copyright infringment. Pls don't,
  • Nunya☠B says
    just to save you legal fees. someone will and they'll sue and make more money for 'lost revenue' than sales.
  • Madame Maracas
    wouldn't be that hard to generate a similar idea/image and propagate it at a cut-rate as discussed above.
  • Nunya☠B says
    true - something in a similar color say,
  • Madame Maracas
    a nice sapphire blue maybe? tiger eye? Luscious Malachite? lotta options
  • yourseomentor says
    wow anyone here bought this yet?
  • Sir Proudgamer
    FYI guys I am selling HAND Drawn Stick figures a status symbol worth every penny at cut rate price of $750 :-D
  • JoeHobot says
    I am selling my post notices on how I build LiveCrunch for $2400 any bids? LOL...thats how crazy this app sounds..
  • av3ry says
    lol wat
  • Dazedit says
    thats awesome.
  • simplyRik says
    i don't understand why people are making such a big deal of it.
  • simplyRik says
    Obviously it is a developer trying to get publicity which is working.
  • seswa feels
    that's stupid too
  • Brett says
    this is great!
  • SAMTiu says
    it's not like ppl show what's on their iphone's screen all the time. The developer must still be getting a lot of money for it though :-)
