Francis released an update ot his application Waves.

Waves is a small toy for your apple iPhone or iPod touch. You can select a predefined image or your own wallpaper and you can touch the screen to generate some wave effect over the image. A floating button can also be added in order to generate the effect in the different screens of the device (i.e. the picture app).

Release notes:

Hi, There is a sporadic problem with the 1.1 version of Waves causing sometimes some troubles during the device reboot when the floating button is enabled.
That’s why a 1.1-1 version has been put on the installer in order to remove it from your device before I can make a fix.
The download is currently removed from this page too.
Sorry for the troubles.
Francis.

MNPlight aims at getting rid of the need for a computer with iTunes. It runs on your iPhone, and is able to modify the iPhone calendar, address book and iPod databases.

MNPlight can be of particular interest for Linux users who don’t have iTunes, but it can also be used by other users when they want to update their iPhone data when they are away from their iTunes computer.

If you keep using iTunes, you may experiment problems with the Calendar and the Address Book since modifications done on your iPhone won’t be seen by iTunes.

Changes:

File Browser:
Send any file by e-mail
Icon for directories

POWDER is a roguelike game, which is not a port of an existing roguelike. It is built around replayability and long term ergonomics, not short term learning.

Changes:

“You are too big to swap” has two os in the first too. (David Damerell)
Many encyclopedia typo fixes. (David Damerell)
Wands that fizzle now conjugate “fizzle” according to the wand rather than the zapper.
When you learn the charges in a wand, there is no longer an incorrect article prefixing the wand name.
[DS] Now using devkitPro r21 rather than the hybridized version. Thanks to Richard Quirk for finding the work around and sending me code.
[DS] Thanks to Richard Quirk’s patch, POWDER should consume less power when waiting for a key press.
[DS], [SDL] Paged text will now show the background all the way to the edges of the window rather than being cut off at the GBA’s resolution.
When items teleported, their location in the map array wasn’t being updated, allowing them to be potentially accessed after being deleted.
Cancelling autopickup after already picking one item up when there is a thing to eat no longer causes you to eat said thing. And, incidentally, potentially killing you if said thing was a slug corpse. (Brendan)
“The fighter foobar’s death” will now auto-capitalize Foobar.
[DS] Save locations are now specified with absolute paths so it doesn’t matter where the actual POWDER executable is. (Johnboy554)
[DS] The output of POWDER on the DS is saved to /data/powder. This is also used for reading – graphics tiles must now be in /data/powder/gfx. This should keep your flash card clean and (apparently) this matches the standard homebrew definition. If you want to keep your old highscores, move the POWDER.SAV into the aforementioned directory. (Phillip Conrad)
Backspace key on the virtual keyboard is a double key to accomadate the fact it is too compact. (David Hong)
Wearing multiple pieces of artifact armour with attack boni will increase your chance of doing an armour attack. This means it is beneficial to add more attack armour rather than it only being wise to only equip the most powerful.
bmp2c and bmp.cpp both now properly handle non-Intel endianness. (Ben Hjelt)
Icons are now present on SDL builds and in the windows .exe. I also think that, thanks to Richard Quirk’s help, they’ll be present in the DS in Moonshell, but I haven’t been able to verify.
A wand once again crumbles into dust rather than crumble.
An interesting graphical upgrade. Monsters and items are now on a separate layer from the terrain. This means they can be drawn transparently on top rather than always being black bordered. This is made optional as the default tiles are not optimized for this look – you can turn it on with the Opacity option of the Options menu.
One more room.
