Nice Try, Wolfram Alpha. Still Not Paying $50 For Your App.

A couple months ago, Wolfram Alpha launched an impressive iPhone application based on their "computational knowledge engine" (a fancy word for search engine predicated on math) of the same name. Unfortunately, they horribly miscalcuted what it should cost when they set the price at $50. But rather than simply lowering the price, they're trying another trick. As we pointed out at the time, one of the most humorous things about the app's pricing is that the mobile version of Wolfram Alpha was completely free. Free beats $50 any day of the week, and I think WolframAlpha finally realized that as they have decided to destroy the mobile web version that was tailored for the iPhone and iPod touch, which TUAW noticed today.
