They currently have 30 million users which I think will grow up quickly during this week. Being in 2nd place of Top 25 Free apps is a good prove for that.

Features which are only available in Aperture™ 3.2 but not in Lightroom™ 4

The Impossible Game – $0.99
Rated 4 out of 5.
This game is not impossible; just insanely difficult. It’s honestly more like The Insanely Difficult Game of Trial and Error. Trial and error with an awesome soundtrack.

However, if you are the type of gamer that takes pleasure in the otherworldly challenges offered by difficult games, then this is the game for you.
