Hello. Today mydailytech.com is bringing you a review of the new app – Action Potato by Sunflat Studios.
This app is very addictive and has very simple controls. You simply tap it to make the pan jump up and catch the potato to earn points. It’s it’s very repetitive, but like Sunflat Studio’s best game – Papi jump, it is repetitive but amazing at the same time.
This game can really grow on you – if you’re like me, you may want to add this app to your dock, it really is a keeper!
If you’d like some extra levels for your Cube Runner iPod Touch game that we recently reviewed you’ve come to the right place!
It’s as simple as going to add new level pack. and typing in one of the URLs found at the bottom of this post.
I am not 100% sure these are working, so if they don’t, blame the forum I got them from – but please leave a comment letting us know whether they did or didn’t work for you! These were tested to work on cube runner one and not two, and it is the first version of cube runner, so it may be outdated.

The Mover Open app allows you to have a virtual table, that you can slide notes, business cards or pictures over. Just by flicking it toward the other device.
It’s not quite as simple as the Bump app where you hold your iPhone in your hand and bump fists with someone else, and your contact information is swapped. But it works better when you don’t have 3G or a wi-fi network.
Mover open allow you to pass files or text between each other on both wi-fi or Bluetooth. Making it useable almost anywhere. I give it a solid 7.5 out of ten, a great app to have but not something you will most likely use every day.
It will likely come in handy just when you’d think you wouldn’t need it! That’s how life is.

Apple, to great fanfare, unveiled its long-awaited “netbook/tablet/iphone” in January. The iPad looks simply like a big iPod touch, and even has that little home button at the bottom!
Being what, in reality, is simply just an iPod Touch with a processor that’s more powerful and a bigger screen – I don’t think its worth buying.
Validating the point that the iPad is really just an iPod Touch that isn’t portable and is overpriced, it runs primitive iPod Touch apps! Now, some may say that this is a great idea, since people can run their iPod apps that they really like which don’t yet have iPad counterparts – but, I believe that if it can run iPod apps, that proves that it uses the same primitive Operating System that the iPod uses, with a few tweaks.
Also, the iPad doesn’t even have multi-tasking capability! Although, with its ‘powerful’ processor you’d think it would – but it doesn’t. Hopefully Apple will fix this in the long run with some sort of silly paid-for software upgrade.
I think that the iPad is a dud – and that Apple will greatly regret not thinking this out more!

Rollercoaster rush is truly one of the greater games for the iTouch. It has several levels to keep you busy, and many achievements that you can obtain through the game-play. It also has two versions: a themed christmas version, and a regular version.
The controls vary but are always simple. You either tap or tilt the iPod in the direction you want to go. Although the graphics are somewhat cartoony, they do the job quite well and add appeal to the game. This game is great for all ages and runs smoothly during gameplay, except it crashed once during the 3 hour period I tested it for.
The game takes about an hour to beat, and a ton of time to unlock all the acievments for. This is a great game, and I recommend it for anybody who likes a bit of a challenge, and who also has an iPod touch. It’s free! How can you go wrong?

iPods seem to be all the rage these days, encapsulating its buyers into a dreamland of a sophistication and self-importance that is solely based on the fact that you are carrying around an expensive Apple product, and anyone who does not own one or dislikes them, is an outcast and should be treated as such. In fact, from 2002 to 2007 Apple sold 100 million iPods. Of course the popularity of the iPod is still increasing, luring people in with the only program it works with, iTunes. I have asked my friends why the decided to get an iPod and they said, “Because of iTunes. iTunes is such a good program with billions of songs and movies and tons of stuff!”
In reality, iPods are very expensive, and iTunes uses major DRM restrictions on everything purchased there so you can only use the songs you buy from them on your iPod and nothing else! iTunes is really the iPod’s true weakness – the iPod will not sync to any other program and iTunes is really horrible software. If you want to share a song with a friend, it won’t let you! Although many think it is illegal, is quite common and really shouldn’t be considered illegal as many people also used to share songs on cassette tapes back in the 80′s. Are they worth all of this extra cash? Is there an alternative?
There are many companies that have tried competing with the iPod, but I think that SanDisk takes the cake. The SanDisk Sansa Fuze is an amazing mp3 player, at a fraction of the price that most iPod Nanos cost. The Sansa Fuze could even be comparable to the iPod Classic. The Fuze has a 1.9 inch viewing screen, it plays videos, music, shows pictures, and it has FM Radio and a Voice Recorder directly built into it! Apple is just barely coming out with iPods that have built in radio.
The Fuze also comes with an expandable microSD card slot! That means you could get an 8gb microSD card, and the 8gb Fuze, and have 16gb in storage space. iPods do not have the option to expand its storage space. Also, the Fuze is not tied down to one program. It works with Windows Media Player, Rhapsody, WinAmp and works with pretty much any program you want! It even plays formats that iPods cannot play like .mp3, .wav, and .wma.
The 4gb Fuze is only $50-$60, and to get an 8gb microSD card is only another $10, and to get an 8gb iPod Nano it is $150. The iPod is more than twice as expensive as the Fuze.
In conclusion, the iPod and the Fuze both have the same features, but the Fuze has just a little bit more, at a fraction of the price. Its sleek look and feel can be compared over the look and feel of the iPods. If you are looking for flexibility, and portability and a low price, take a look at what the Sansa Fuze has to offer. You no longer need to be caught in the web of Apple.
