This second thought was because, at the time, there were probably about 100,000 apps in the App Store and it had been around a year, I think. I thought there was no way I could develop all the cool accessories I had in my head before other people and companies had done it and it’d be just like the App Store. But I decided to try anyway, always keeping an ear out for what was going on in the accessory world. The obvious first project was a credit card reader for the iPhone. From my shop, Mac Medics, I repair anywhere from two to ten iPhone screens a day, six days a week. It makes me a nice little bit of green. What I learned was that at least three-quarters of my customers were business people who used their iPhones for business. Most of them really would have liked to have a way to accept credit cards on their iPhones.
