APPLE UNDER FIRE OVER IPHONE ‘BABY SHAKER’…(FILES) A woman holds up an iPhone handset along a street in Hong Kong on July 5, 2008. Apple came under fire on April 22, 2009 after an application for the iPhone called “Baby Shaker” was briefly approved for sale in the company’s online store. The program, which reportedly appeared in Apple’s App Store on Monday and cost 99 cents to download, allowed a user to shake an iPhone screen to make a baby stop crying. After enough shakes, the hand-drawn baby pictured on the screen stopped wailing and a large red “X” appeared over each eye.
