Weird, appleinsider says the three will move to Apple "reports TechCrunch", but TechCrunch says that 4 team members move to Apple:

AppleInsider:
"As part of the acquisition, Workflow's team of Ari Weinstein, Conrad Kramer and Nick Frey are headed to Apple to work on unspecified projects, reports TechCrunch."

TechCrunch:
"Workflow the app is being acquired, along with the team of Weinstein, Conrad Kramer, Ayaka Nonaka and Nick Frey."

Also, AppleInsider is not adding much to the TechCrunch story...

Well, a bit more than suggests doesn't it ?

No way to tell.

No way to tell.

It's still not enough to move all my workflow to an iPad, but that seems pretty cool.
