Android – Iphone – Applications

There are a lot of radio apps out there, like SparkRadio, and this is TuneIn Radio.

This App allows the user to search for songs or artists, and then zero in on the stations currently playing it. It supports iOS 4.2 and can be controlled by iOS’s built-in playback controls. Think of it as a DVR for radio and then pause a live stream, then rewind back to play a song.

You can get it on the iTunes store for about $2.

This looks like a fun game on iTunes known as A Moon for the Sky.

I suppose that the word for this app/game would be called a physics puzzler, and involves the user to draw a line to make a trampoline to send your character higher and higher and collect some stellar treasures.

Play about 18 levels and costs $1.99 for the iPad version. For a limited time, it is about $0.99 for the iPad, and the same price for the iPhone version.

Some of you might remember when we reported on the man who said a Motorola Droid 2 exploded in his ear.

Now we getting indication that these claims could be false. That maybe this user dropped the phone, didn’t realize that the glass was broken, and cut his ear (hence the blood).

I guess there must be phone forensics teams that check out phones for claims like these. Either this posting is a lesson about falsely reporting on your busted phone, or watch out for exploding phones.

You are going to have to watch the above video with a lot of anti-sarcasm meds, but Aliph, the makers of the Jawbone, have created a pretty useful land with Thoughts.

Think of Thoughts as a way to “bridge the disconnect between text messaging and voice communication”. Thoughts allows the user to record a voice message, and let it be played later. There is even a voice-to-text application, and it can apparently pick up some nuances.

Those that receive your “thought” need to have the App in order to respond. Fortunately, the App is completely free.

I don’t know about you, but I get scared leaving my laptop unattended in a coffee house. You can imagine the people that have iPads.

You can get yourself a case that will hold the iPad safe, and then a steel cable bundle to lock it into place. If someone wants your iPad, they will have to crack it open and thus crack open the iPad itself.

The case costs about $39.95, and the case with cable bundle will run about $64.95.
