I'd be interested, but I should warn you that I'm unsure about the ability of an
LDraw viewer to sell 145 copies at $.99 each, which is how many would have to
sell to recoup the $100. (If I was highly confident of the market, I'd do it
all myself.) Also, I would likely need artwork help from someone. My
understanding is that the app approval process could fail if the artwork is too
bad, and I'm definitely no artist.

Okay, explain to me (in layman terms) what you are talking about here. If it is
anything remotely related to ldraw and LEGO, hell, I’d pay the .99 to support
the effort!

It would be an LDraw viewer for iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch. If I wrote it, it would
be based on LDView (and presumably be called LDView), but would have a
simplified UI appropriate to the iOS touch interface. It would be available on
the Apple App Store.

Could you team up with Ace Kim from fbtb.net who has already created an app?
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/bricking-news/id398355004?mt=8
That would save the $100 cost, sell for $.99 or even $1.99?
Just a thought.
I’d buy one.

Thanks for the suggestion. The answer would depend on two things:
- Whether or not Ace and I could come to an agreement.
- Whether or not Ace has a company. Joint iOS development requires proving to Apple that there is an actual company involved. Otherwise, only one person can do development.
