Boom Boat belongs to a game genre that seems to be in some sort of renaissance: the handheld physics-based cartoon puzzler. After the success of Angry Birds, it’s no surprise that developers are doing everything they can to get their slice of that App Store pie. Boom Boat is an honorable addition to the mix. It’s straightforward and fun, just like it ought to be.
Here’s the premise of the game: oil leaks have mysteriously sprung out in all the oceans of the world. The player must guide a boat—a “boom boat,” if you will—to seal up the leaks by dropping bombs on them. Why wouldn’t a bomb just make an oil leak a thousand times worse? And why aren’t more boats helping out? Put these completely reasonable questions out of your mind. There is important bombing to be done.

This speculation is based on the fact that The Daily iPad app which was having a free trial until today, extended their trial period to February 28. Because The Daily is supposed to come on a subscription model which will be only available on iOS 4.3, it is safe to believe this firmware will come out on or around 2/28/11… (…)

tw.Apple.pro, a Taiwanese website that has a pretty good track record of publishing leaked information about Apple products, claims today that Cupertino has been evaluating 3 different hardware prototypes of the iPhone 5, one of them including a slideout keyboard.
A second prototype apparently would be what the iPhone 3GS was to the iPhone 3G: a similar-looking but improved model. This version of the iPhone 5 would be the same as the iPhone 4, but would have a bigger battery and an improved camera lens… (…)
