If you’re Jailbroken yet still frustrated that you can’t move between iPhone apps as easily as you can web pages in Safari (or Palm webOS users can in card view), ProSwitcher [Free beta - Cydia] is something to consider.

Your iPhone Gifts

vitovox — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 09:30:57 +0000

I was wondering how geeky are we, and how many of the gifts we made or received were iPhone related?

As a matter of fact, the presents I made were up to 80% for the iPhone. Even the small presents like our ViKaSkins were a huge success.

Obviously no one dared to gift me anything … [visit site to read more]

TOMTOM Europe price drops from 99,99 eur to 79,99 eur, bringing the price only 10 eur more expensive than the 69,99 eur BENELUX version, which is a good bargain.

N.O.V.A. and NFS Shift

vitovox — Sun, 20 Dec 2009 16:00:21 +0000

A couple of days ago, I bought (cough, cough) 2 games that need to be mentioned as being proof that the iPhone is a serious competitor for handheld gaming consoles and, I experienced it first hand, made me think twice about buying a PSP Go or not (as a matter of fact I chose not to).

Gameloft has proven in the past that production value goes over creativity and managed to push the iPhones grafic processing power each time a bit further.

I must say that the approval process was totally different than most I had read around. It was totally smooth, friendly contact with Reviewers and quick result. Really pleased about it.
Anyhow, since a picture is worth a thousands words, I leave you with our official ViKaNews ( LuxiPhone) application. And now rush to the Appstore to install it!
