Hmmm, an offline version of Aces High for the iPhone/iTouch/iPwnbecauseIcanafford$100AT&Tphonebills? Sounds intriguing. Where would HTC get the manpower to do so? Would they license the rights to the Aces High name to an independent studio? Also, why make an Aces High for the iPhouch when you can make it for a system with a larger audience, such as the Game Boy Color, Gamecube, or the PSP? Sure there would be motion controls, but motion controls do not make the game. Need I point to 100+ Family Fun Games for the Wii? Or, forgive me, the Power Glove? Besides, do you think HTC would actually WANT Apple to muck around and to tell HTC how Apple feels Aces High should be?
Hmm... $100 phone bills? My sister has an iPhone and only pays $40 a month, would also only be $70 a month if she decided to add an unlimited data plan... I also have a friend with a Blackberry who pays $120 a month through Verizon... Perhaps you should do some research before you go and stereotype people for owning a device and/or using a service.
Also, you do realize that Apple has no say in what goes into the apps that are made for their devices (except perhaps vulgar things prolly couldn't go on their marketplace)? They put out a public SDK for their devices for the purpose of creating applications them.
That said, I don't own one of these devices, and I do agree that Aces High for the iPhone is pointless.
