Marks iPod Touch

I will be leaving Marks iPod Touch for good. It has been great being here on this blog. I have learned a lot from it. We even had 10,000+ uniques in less then 1 hour. We used to be updated a lot, always adding new stuff. It seems everyone has lost interest. I can’t update this whole site myself, and have the owner not even interested in this. Thank you guys, I have had a great time here, but it looks like this is my time to leave.

There has been just about no news here for about a month. I am very sorry about that. But what I would like to announce is that the forum has gotten a new theme. We have also, about a month ago, moved to paid hosting. I am not sure if Mark would like to move to my server or not. Anyways, just trying to keep you updated!

A new dock tweak called Infinidock has been added to the Cydia Store. It costs $0.99 on the Big Boss repo. Infinidock is a small tweak that allows you to have 10 icons on your dock. You can scroll throught the icons on your dock. The developer that made Infinidock also helped make a multitasking app called ProSwitcher.

This Springboard tweak monitors how much each app is used. Then it sorts out all your apps. Your most used apps are first. You can find this tweak in the Cydia Store for $1.99.

Mark has been making an iPhone webapp called iTouchOnline. It is a site where you can purchase your own webapp. The webapps are made with iWebKit. You can get your own webapp made for under $5.00. If your on your iPhone go to it here.

There’s a firewall app for the iPhone that monitors your app’s connections to the internet, it’s called Firewall iP. You can block or allow an app’s connections to the internet. This app is on RockApp for only $2.99.

Groklaw reports on the early outcome of the Apple vs. Psystar case from a report filed on Friday. According to the court documents, Apple’s motion for summary judgment on copyright infringement and DMCA violation is granted.

So that means damages ahead for Psystar on the copyright issues just decided on summary judgment, at a minimum. The court asked for briefs on that subject. In short, Psystar is toast. Psystar’s only hope now is Florida, and frankly I wouldn’t bet the house on that one. Judges notice if you were just found guilty of a similar cause of action in another state.
Psystar and Apple have been in legal battle after Psystar began selling Mac clones back in April. Psystar provided modified versions of Mac OS X to run on their generic PC hardware, opening the door for lower-cost Mac clones. Psystar’s efforts generated a massive amount of attention and Apple eventually filed suit in July citing copyright violations.

This judgement appears to end Psystar as a business despite continued efforts to establish a legitimate business on generic Mac OS X computers.

Activision has release Call of Duty for iPhone/iPod Touch. It is called, Call of Duty: World at War: Zombies. This is just like the Nazi Zombies on PS3 and Xbox.  It even has online multiplayer! This game looks very promising.

While searching online I found a very good looking controller for the iPod/iPhone. It works with 3.0 and has an 8-way d-pad, connects via Bluetooth, and a built in battery. It’s supposed  to be released sometime in 2010.  It has its own SDK for developers. This would be great for emulators. Here’s a pic:

Eliminate Pro is a very stunning game. It has excellent  graphics and a very good online playing system. It  features several in-depth maps, upgradable guns, armor, and matchmaking. This game is a must-have for all iPod/iPhone gamers. It is free, but energy cells are expensive. If you don’t want to pay for the energy you have to wait until it automatically recharges.
