    Very sad thats all.
    Then again, Apple has complete control over the system but to appeal to 80% of the idevice users I would say that they should'nt dpo this, but there is a want for this stuff.

    I think it's quite a good idea, finally we Adults can have games that have adult content. I truly think it's good that Apple is possibly going to allow adult content.

    I think it's funny how everybody's minds go directly to porno:p

    I think mature rated games is more along the lines of what Apple has in mind.

    No, I think that porn is what the porn industry has in mind. There are iPhone formatted sites as it is. They would be more than happy to have a $.99 app and have micro-transactions inside it for more pr0nz. It's a great economical idea.

    Hint: If you find things offensive you don't have to download them, or have your parents keep your iTunes set to limit you to 12 and under games.

    I can CONFIRM! that there will be mature content on the iPhone after a little talk with Apple's UK head of sales and Marketing at a dev conference in Dublin called devdays
    who said that post 3.0 there will be mature content on the iPhone now that parental controls are enabled across apps.

    I want a game where you get to brutally murder Jesus Christ. That's my kind of adult content. Apple allows that and I know where all my stock is goin'.:p

    It's always funny to see how "adult content" is automatically associated with porn. Whatever Apple does is fine with me as if I have a say in it anyway, but I wonder how they would verify age. There are various authentication technologies that adult sites use now that I discovered in my research, but I do question how porn will handle on a small device (yes, pun intended) :p
