This application allows you to read large Text (.txt,.text), eReader/Peanut Press (.pdb), Rich Text Format (.rtf), Palm Doc (.pdb), Mobipocket (.pdb,.prc,.mobi), Plucker (.pdb), HTML (.htm,.html), CHM (.chm), and Fiction Book (.fb2) files quickly and efficiently on the iPhone/Touch. This application doesn’t have the fancy formatting of ruBooks or Books.app, but it supports many formats and can quickly load and display large text files that currently cause problems with some UI Text View/Web View based apps. It also gives you some options to reformat/reflow text so that it might be more readable on the iPhone’s smaller screen. If you want to load books quickly and read text, this may be the app for you.

There are many public domain, home-brew games available which have been written for the Nintendo platform, and depending on your country of origin, you may be entitled to play images of commercial games which you rightfully own.

Pornophonique are a pretty unique group, creating music with help of their “Gameboy” and other instruments. Read on:

Gameboy meets campfire meets art

Eight songs about sad robots, about feeling lonely in computerdungeons and about other sentimental stuff – sounds like Pornophonique are ready to launch one of the most spectacular release in all of Musicartistry’s history! The output of the two guys behind Pornophonique boast quality songwriting, never-herad-before sounds and last but not least their songs are bound to sneak into your mind and stay there for a very long time. We recommend: Download this monumental work of art as long as it’s still free!

And since no one can live off music alone, your eyes will get some candy too: Eight artists from the comic/graphic novel – scene designed illustrations to the eight songs on the album. If you are interested, don’t hesitate to order your copy of “8-bit Lagerfeuer” on http://www.pornophonique.de , complete with interchangeable covers in a white tin-box.
