Είναι η εφαρμογή iRa Pro που δίνει τη δυνατότητα στη πρόσβαση και live διαχείρηση καμερών παρακολούθησης και ασφαλείας. Ιδού και ένα screenshot από το iPhone μου:

1 λήψειςΤο έψαξα λίγο περισσότερο και κατέληξα στην ιστοσελίδα http://gizmodo.com/5...ive-iphone-apps όπου αναφέρει σχετικά με την εφαρμογή:
The most expensive app in the U.S. App Store today is called iRa Pro: It's a dashboard to access and control live feeds of video surveillance cameras, and it costs $900.
The company that makes it — Lextech Labs, outside of Chicago — won't say how many copies it has sold. But Lextech president and CEO Alex Bratton says it's more than the five people who have reviewed the latest edition on iTunes. He's "pretty happy with the number."
Why charge so much? Because for the people who are buying the app, it's actually a relatively small cost.
Bratton says his target customers are monitoring security systems for corporations, government organizations, universities, etc., that can run more than half a million dollars. For them, a $900 app is just part of the cost of doing business. Especially when the alternative — getting a custom piece of hardware developed, instead of using off-the-shelf iPhones and iPod touches — costs thousands per gadget.
Στη συνέχει όμως το άρθρο αναφέρει και την εξής "αστεία" περίπτωση, μιας εφαρμογής με κόστος $999.99 ή 727 περίπου Ευρώ που ουσιαστικά δεν έκανε τίποτα!
About a year ago, a German developer had an app briefly approved by Apple called "I Am Rich." For $999.99, it did absolutely nothing, and was controversial. After a day or so, Apple pulled it from the App Store — but not before the developer reportedly sold eight copies.
Κοίτα να δεις τι γίνεται..
