Palm Sounds

Great to know that someone is still using PalmSprak ...

@PalmSounds I'm using Speak and PalmSprak frequently at @Goatsnotes shows. Sounds great! Working fine on latest iOS 7.1.1

Running iOS apps on Android, yes, but ...

I don't think that this is ever going to make a real difference. I can't imagine that running iOS music apps on an Android is ever going to be a roaring success, but nevertheless, it is an interesting idea.

Having tried the reverse, running Android on a jailbroken 3G, it was far from useful, and that project is all but abandoned now.

Still, I think it's good to see people trying out stuff like this and seeing where it leads.

OT: NI's Reaktor is 70% off for 2 more days

I know it isn't mobile related (although one day I hope it will be), but I couldn't let a deal like this go by without letting you know. Reaktor from Native Instruments is 70% off at the moment. So in the UK that's down to £89 from a normal price of £339.

That's awesome really! It only has 2 more days to go, so apart from this I might remind you once more.

If you haven't already heard, the song contest has been extended until the 31st

I know that perhaps one or two people feel a little upset as they'd got their entries in on time, but there were lots of people who contacted me to say that they were nearly there and could the have just a little more time. So I decided to extend.

Now you have until this Saturday, the 31st to get your entries in. Absolutely no more time after that!
