[citation][nom]Steve Jobs[/nom]Fiore’s app will be in the store shortly. That was a mistake. [/citation]
Funny how Mark Fiore's app denial was a "mistake" only after he won the Pulitzer Prize.

[citation][nom]proxy711[/nom]Sorry if you have a strong need for porn on the go with your Iphone you have bigger things to deal with other then iphone apps being rated G....like what excuse to tell the cop that catches you touching yourself in a bathroom stall.[/citation]
You know unless you are making a lot of noise in there it really isn't illegal to masturbate in a bathroom stall, as long as you are quiet and no one can see you they can't stop you.

Steve Jobs rules. Period! I am so glad that there are people out there trying to protect us from stupidity and perverts. There is no need for porn on iPhones. The Internet is vast and if you need to watch porn you can do it on your own terms. Also, you can pretty much browse from your iPhone's browsers to any porn page you want. Oh, wait! You guys don't own an iPhone. So, why do you get all upset? Bunch of whiners! Also, God is watching you.

Gj for acting like a condescending jerk. I really don't want to start a religious flamewar...so I won't.

Title should be:

"Steve Jobs: Folks who want freedom can buy Android".

So Apple fans let me get this straight. You paid X amount of money for an (not "and" Steve) IPhone/IPod/IPad and you are ok with someone else telling you what you can or cannot use it for.

Wow....

iphone takes up one hand, pressing the buttons occupies the other...what's it matter if there's no porn available if you don't have a free hand?

I think "porn would decide the HD war between HD-DVD and Blu-ray" is only intended for grabbing readers' attention. Seriously, I don't think porn is THAT popular.

I-Phone users who find what Jobs said offensive can always get an Android phone, which is also another cool gadget. Of course, iPhone is not all about Jobs.

I don't know about the iPhone but the iPod Touch can download porn, be hacked, jail broke, and a variety of other things that apple never thought of. If you rely on tech to protect your children you overestimate the tech and underestimate your children.

you guys are being stupid. a cell phone began and as a device for using in public (as opposed to a land line phone) and though many people use cell phones at home they still have that stigma. Porn on a cell just seems sleazy. While you guys are typically treating jobs as though he were both a moron and evil genius at the same time your missing why there is value to a phone staying clean. I like porn...at home.

...Me looking around the office, thinking...
Hmm, do I own any Apple products?

Pause...

Um, no. OK... Good!

"we do believe we have a moral responsibility."

To Steve: No, you don't. And don't even try...
Statements like this KEEP ME AWAY from buying anything with the Apple logo on it.

Guess Jobs was sick the day the sports illustrated swimsuit edition app and playboys app where approved for the app store. More pornographic than some of the other stuff they ban.

You think that comment is going to stop people from buying Apple products...get real. They've done pretty well so far without it. Do you think the demographic that needs portable porn is big enough to cause a dent in Apple's sales? Odds are they've already hacked or loaded vids on their Apple device. And as to the Porn industry on Bluray vs HD DVD, Vivid (one of the biggest porn distributors, but I'm sure you guys already knew that)was an early supporter of HD DVD. The rest of the industry didn't jump on Bluray until HD was on it's way out. While I may not like having my choices made for me, good for Jobs in sticking with his convictions. He said it because he can.
