Skyfire makes $1M in its opening week

We knew Skyfire would be popular with its flash-video playing features but we’d never thought it would be this popular. First, the company behind Skyfire needed to actually pull the application from the App Store due to all the traffic hitting their servers. Now, Mobile Crunch is reporting that the app made over $1 million in revenue in its first week on the App Store.

The app costs users $2.99 a piece to download from the App Store and it looks like they sold over 300,000 copies. Wow.
