Single Image iPhone Apps

I have a new idea for minimalist applications. How about applications which are solely comprised of just one (static) image. In some sense this is treating visualization as an application. Successful manifestations of this idea have been around for ages in the form of maps.
Wikipedia defines an application as "computer software designed to help the user to perform a singular or multiple related specific tasks." So it seems to me obvious that a simple image explaining the conversion of fahrenheit to celsius is just as much as an application that prompts the user to type in "65 degrees fahrenheit to celsius".
