There was a very limited AfD discussion about this subject two years ago, where the result was keep, but after two years, nobody has bothered to provide reliable sourcing. I see news mentions, but not news articles, about this site. Woogee (talk) 00:10, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep A brief Google News searched turned up this (relatively) recent review. Plus, reputable media outlets like PCWorld cite IceRocket as a source for data, which speaks to its notability. That, combined with the sources cited in the last AfD discussion, should be more than enough to satisfy WP:WEB. caknuck ° needs to be running more often 00:29, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep a sad and unloved article to be sure, but the subject appears to pass WP:WEB. It seems like it failed to really take off, but still got massive media attention, especially when it first came out. I'm seeing plenty of Google Books hits too. Notable enough.

- Keep Recent coverage admittedly somewhat marginal and tending toward the trivial, but 04/05 coverage would appear to satisfy WP:WEB. A sampling: [1][2][3]. --RrburkeekrubrR 02:54, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep After skimming the sources provided above, I think this subject meets WP:WEB. "Nobody's working on it" is generally an argument to avoid, but I'm willing to work on the article myself; hopefully that assuages the nominator's doubts.

- Comment. I see that despite the many keep !votes here, this article remains completely unsourced. Not even a primary source to speak of. JBsupreme (talk) 04:47, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
