NASA just better watch out, I'm pretty sure Apple holds a patent for a mobile device surrounded by zero gravity.

They will require the device download it's launch app from istore (and they keep 30%), they'll call it i-orbit and it will touch down on a landing-i-pad.

Hope the satelite can hard reset itself Its going to be expensive to send a astronaut every time it locks up. My android phone needs a hrd reset every 4 days
