Health Cloud is a native iPhone client for Google Health, Google’s Personal Health Record (PHR). If you don’t already have a Google Health account, you’ll probably want to sign up first.

Health Cloud is not developed by Google. Rather it uses Google Health’s publicly available API (the Objective-C GData libraries) to communicate with Google’s servers to retrieve a view of the PHR in the form of a Continuity of Care Record (CCR). The XML-based CCR is then passed through an XSL stylesheet developed by The American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) and displayed on your iPhone’s screen.

iWind simulates the iPhone measuring wind speed!

EvilDragon recently announced an delay for GPH’s new handheld “Wiz”.

Read on:

I’m sorry to announce that GPH told me the WIZ has been delayed further. The new date is now late of April (but this should be sure now, as they did tell me).

There have been some problems with the firmware – nothing serious or critical, but it takes some more time.

The problems are mainly the new flash engine – they are still testing various engines and try to include the best and most suitable one.

Also, the new firmware will have a better display quality – I guess the tearing will be fixed.

They also plan on releasing weekly videos of the WIZ development and interviews with the team members.

svpe has released an official version of DVDx for System Menu 3.4. Note that PatchMii and advanced modes are unavailable for this version.

DVDX is a homebrew application that installs a hidden “channel” which can be used by other homebrew applications to access home burned and factory pressed DVD content without the need for a modchip. This does not modify any IOS in any way, making it very safe.
