Most Annoying iPhone App Ever?

One of my favorite Far Side cartoons has a split screen image. On the top, there is an angel greeting a bunch of new arrivals, saying "welcome to heaven, here's your harp." On the bottom half, there's a devil also greeting new arrivals, saying, "welcome to hell, here's your accordion." Every time I see that cartoon I think the only thing that kept it from being perfect is that the devil should have had bagpipes.

Even if you believe the adage "if it's not Scottish, it's crap", that doesn't mean the converse is also true. Exhibit #1: bagpipes. We were always blessed that bagpipes were hard to find and expensive. Soon that won't be true as a company called Epipes is bringing out an iPhone application called EpipesKeys that turns your (note that I didn't say MY) iPhone or iPod touch into a very realistic set of bagpipes. The app hasn't even officially been released, but I'm saving for my lawyer now. I'm looking for one that is an expert on justifiable homicide defenses.
