Every week, the TWiT.tv network produces MacBreak Weekly netcast (podcast). Every week, the panel on MacBreak Weekly announces their “picks of the week”. This week, noted photographer Scott Bourne’s pick was a $15,000 iPhone accessory: the Mamiya DL28 Digital Camera System.

Okay, technically it’s a lot more than just an accessory. It’s a professional caliber digital camera, but Bourne chose it because it… works with the iPhone, with full multi-touch support!

Reportedly, you’ll be able to view pictures as they are taken (similar to how a laptop-tethered solution works) and perhaps do some manipulation of the images as well. Not sure if it’s a WiFi/Bonjour solution like the Apple Remote app, but seeing the iPhone’s interface potential being increasingly leveraged by technology like the Mamiya, SONOS, etc. is very exciting.

And, Bourne also informed us this was only the second most expensive iPhone accessory he’s come across. The most expensive, currently, is an iPhone compatible Mercedes Benz…

Anyone breaking out their American Express Black Card for a little shopping spree? And for those more budget conscious among us, what other devices would you like to control with your iPhone? Your Roomba? Your fridge? Let us know!

Got $15,000 for an iPhone Accessory? Mamiya Has the DL28 Digital Camera System!

Daring Fireball points to this Twitter from Raven Zachary as a reason why developers will put up with Apple’s capricious and communication-challenged App Store:

Trism, the $5 gravity/tilt-assisted iPhone puzzle game by Steve Demeter, has made $250,000 since July 11.

We’re pointing to DF because they’re right.

And for more on the other side of the App Store debate, check out the latest episode of MacBreak Weekly from TWiT, where Scott and Alex take complaining developers to task, pointing to PodcasterGate as something that could threaten Apple’s revenue stream if Amazon or another major company sited it as precedence for releasing their own music catcher Apps, bypassing iTunes, instigating Apple shareholder lawsuits, and other corporate level intrigue.

Agree or disagree, all sides of the issue are definitely upping the debate. (And Trism may just have given one side 250K more arguments in their favor…)
