I’ve always known there was big money in mobile phone apps.. I just wish I knew programming! There’s gotta be some way we can model the talents of someone else, while still making a killer profit, without much start up cash…

Yeah right.

That’s right Elijah. Somehow the craze has not caught up to me..Maybe because I don’t own an iPhone!

But there are tons of freelancers out there on elance and getafreelancer. You should be able to get things done for cheap if you indeed have a great app idea.
