I'm not alone! ;-)
I must confess to having downloaded 99 Apps so far and counting...
Some of the comments are corkers like the one at the bottom:

"IPhone App Store encourages new affliction: Appiphilia
6:30 AM, August 26, 2008
For the last few weeks, I've been staying up late glued to my screen,
and frankly it has been wreaking havoc on my sleep patterns. No, not
watching the Olympics or the nonstop political gabfest on 24/7 news
channels.
I have been obsessively logging in to iTunes.
It's not about the songs, audiobooks, TV shows or movies. It's all
about the apps."

Hi, I'm Ken, I'm an appaholic. (group: "Hi Ken.") I started with just
one app a day, then my addiction grew to the point where I had over
100 apps crowding my screen, and I had long forgotten what most of
them did. That didn't stop me, I kept downloading. I'd sneak a
download in the bathroom, and while at work when no one was looking. I
even downloaded while in church. ("Forgive me, Father, for I have
downloaded.")
I visit the iTunes store every five minutes looking for new apps. My
thirst is insatiable.
I even went to a 12-step program for appaholics, but it didn't help.
We spent the two hours trading info about apps, tips and tricks, and
building our wish list for new apps. I even confessed that I might
like to become a developer to create and sell apps for the iPhone. No
matter that I don't know how to program. I didn't do a lot of things
before I owned an iPhone, but that hasn't stopped me. Before I go any
further, though, I'm going to make sure there's a 12-step program for
app developers. If there is, then I know I'll have a great resource
for app ideas and source code.
I tried to stop, but resistance is futile. Even the flashlight app
won't lead me out of this darkness. Apple, you've snagged my soul.
And, I love you for it.
