"Having access to this information when you want it is no longer a luxury but a necessity. We believe the unparalleled combination of real-time data, news and analysis, along with the comprehensive and easy-to-use interfaces, will make the CNBC Real-Time App the best business app available and it will quickly become a must-have for every investor with an iPhone or iPod touch."
