How to turn your iPhone 4 into a flashlight

This is a When Will Apple public service announcement: Do not buy a iPhone 4 LED flashlight app, it’s already included free of charge. If the app is free, have at it, but please don’t spend even 99 cents on any of these apps.
UPDATE Ok, if they add in a strobe light that might be worth 99 cents, I mean who doesn’t like a strobe light?
Today MacRumors reports:
D’Ulisse contacted Apple about the delay and was told that such apps would be rejected as “inappropriate use of hardware”. The developer then reached out to Apple’s Phil Schiller who promised to meet with the App Review department to review their policy. D’Ulisse’s arguments must have been convincing as after some consideration, Apple has approved MoreBluSky’s Flashlight – For iPhone 4 app as well as the many other iPhone 4 flashlight apps in their approval queue.
To access your free LED flashlight app, just open the camera app and toggle to video mode. Then turn on the LED by tapping the lighting bolt icon in the top left and selecting “on”.
