Seemo has updated his game Lead (8k version).

Changes:

– on scramble stages, enemies flash when you are within their ‘hit’ range
– at the end of a catch stage, the message says ‘+500 / perfect !’ for a perfect stage, or ‘xx / caught !’ for
a ‘normal’ stage
– you can now carry a maximum of three smart bombs, so that you get a power-up for every fourth additional smart bomb. Thanks to Eric “r_type2600” for this suggestion! (the last ‘bonus points’ power-up got splitted into two 249 ‘bonus points’ power-ups)
– reworked a little the sides movement routine

Books is a native eBook reader for the iPhone. Capable of reading HTML and plain text stored on your iPhone.

New in version 1.2!

Inline image support! The update you’ve been waiting for! Images smaller than 300 pixels wide will appear as-is; larger images are scaled to fit the iPhone screen. (Sorry, no zooming.) You can still look at individual images, pixel-for-pixel, from the file browser.

Improved sorting in the file browser! Your book files will always appear first in the list, over the images.

Cyrillic support. Thanks to Russian user Michael for pointing me to the correct text encoding.

iSwitcher is a theme / keyboad swapping iPhone application. iSwitcher is 100% compatible with SummerBoard (verified with all versions up to 2.1).

What’s new?

Faster and more useful iSwitcher can now install icons with spaces in their name. I realize this doesn’t sound like a big deal. Trust me, it is. 😀 Version 1.56 is also about 15% faster than v1.45 when loading icon themes and about 20% faster when loading keyboards. (nice…)

Custom Icons We can now load custom icons for each theme. Say you are using the 1984 theme and the next, “can’t do without it” iPhone app is released and you don’t have an icon to match. If the theme developer, or anyone creates a matching icon, all you have to do is put it into the “Icons” subfolder and when iSwitcher is loading that theme, it will install your new icon. This also applies to your own custom apps. I use four one button “dialer” apps and I have made custom icons for all the matching themes.

Protect your PSP from strangers…
