iContact Avian Edition v7.0.4 (PPC Application)

iContact Avian Edition is a branch of iContact, specifically branched from iContact Burt Edition, after Burt ceased development. In case you haven’t heard of it before, iContact is a replacement contacts manager with many finger friendly features.

iContact is designed to be an all-inclusive finger-friendly contact manager for Windows Mobile PocketPC phones.

Release notes:

– REALLY fixed bug where if you leave the iContact window while dragging using the windows task bar, the scrolling freezes (or in some cases, goes crazy) until clicked in again 😀
– Email account is now set to ActiveSync by default
– Clicking on areas that have no actionable possibility or pressing a hardware key that is not assigned would exit out of the item details; I disabled that; It seems more natural to me to have to explicitly press the “back” button on screen or press “left” on the keypad
– Link to Pocket Outlook’s contacts added to program files folder (same as old installer)
– When stopping a fast scroll by pressing on the screen quickly, residual graphics artifacts (such as the top alphabet indicator) will no longer “stick”
– When stopping a quick/long finger movement by holding your finger still for a moment, iContact will no longer initiate a kinetic scroll; in high resolution devices this was common because moving a single pixel when lifting your finger is very easy to do (see new setting below)
– New setting: SpeedThresh = Minimal mouse speed over Y axis to initiate kinetic scrolling, in pixels/(sec/10) <-- Anybody who can add this to the help for other language files (non-english), please PM me the new .clng file. The formula is "number of pixels that must be scrolled in one tenth of a second" - Fixed bug where long-tap duration in the settings was not being used except for drawing the progress bar (long-tap action was using a hard-wired value of one second no matter what you set it to) - When you are in a list with no categories or a single category (such as favorites), if you hold down the d-pad to scroll, it will no longer jump to the start or end after a few seconds, it will instead continue to scroll one by one; scrolling in lists with categories (like the alphabetized main contacts list) will skip through each letter if the d-pad is held down, as before - Config version now matches (and will continue to match) iContact AE version, even if config did not change between versions. - The letter overlay is no longer shown when scrolling with the d-pad (since you can only move one item at a time and its slower than finger scrolling, it didn't really make sense to me to have it shown) - The group title no longer obscures the contact when scrolling with the d-pad - When your key repeat rate is set to a faster-than-normal speed, sometimes the d-pad scrolling wouldn't catch up with the actual selected item; this is fixed - Category jumping (using the d-pad) is now a smooth (but fast) animation (user configurable speed, see below), instead of an instant jump (if you liked the instant jump, set the speed to 0) - New setting: ScrollJumpTime = animation speed for category jumping (above) <-- Anybody who can add this to the help for other language files (non-english), please PM me the new .clng file. - Setup: QVGA/VGA is now a user selectable setting during install if you do not keep previous settings.ini (yes, I know I need to make a better dialog box than YES/NO) - Setup: Can now optionally select whether iContact AE becomes the default contacts manager in WM (this does not affect TouchFlo) - Setup: Fixed misc typos

Not a new feature, but the documentation now includes a section on how to have RACE! PSP load a BIOS ROM file (instead of using the customized hardcoded version)

Frodo v9 (C64 emu for Wii)

Frodo is a Commodore 64 emulator written by Christian Bauer ( http://frodo.cebix.net ). It was ported to the Wii by Simon Kagstrom and does not share any code with FrodoWii.

Put .t64 or .d64 files in /apps/frodo/images on your SD card. The in-game menu allows you to insert disks/tapes, load them and configure the display, joystick ports etc. Saves will be stored on the SD card and the preferences are stored persistently. Wiimote 1 is by default the joystick in port 1 and wiimote 2 the joystick in port 2, but you can swap this.

Changes:

It’s now possible to start hosting a network game “in the background” and continue using the emulator while waiting for someone to connect
Networking support now works (but without sound being transferred). A broker is installed on c64-network.game-host.org.
Link with Yohanes port of SDL, modified by Danny Milo to get USB keyboards working while still having the Home key do what it should
There are sound cracks in this version, caused by the new SDL (unsure why)
