Skyfire for iPhone, iPad, iPod touch Pulled down FromApp Store.

The Skyfire App for iPhone, iPad, iPod touch was released this morning in the App Store only to be removed from the App Store hours latter. Skyfire converts converts Flash content to HTML5 before delivering it to iOS devices. Initially, some suspected foul play from Apple.
However, this pull down has nothing to do with Apple. A post in Skyfire's blog points out that due to it's popularity, Skyfire's servers were not able to cope with the bandwidth requirements that are necessary to convert the Flash content to HTML5. According to their blog Skyfire is temporarily sold out! The app is so popular such that within five hours after it's realease it had become the top grossing app on the iPhone app store!
