iKeepInTouch Helps Users Keep In Touch with - or Avoid - Contacts - Published on 01/30/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Designed to take advantage of iOS5's ability to track location-based contacts, iKeepInTouch is an innovative free new app that helps users keep in touch with their important contacts, schedule meetings when they are, or will soon be, near their contacts' location, and even steer clear of contacts they'd prefer to avoid. iKeepInTouch also lets users know when they're in close proximity, 1-50 miles, of selected contacts.

Cupertino, California - Designed to take advantage of iOS5's ability to track location-based contacts, iKeepInTouch is an innovative free new app that helps users keep in touch with their important contacts, schedule meetings when they are, or will soon be, near their contacts' location, and even steer clear of contacts they'd prefer to avoid.

When used as a reminder app, iKeepInTouch lets users create alerts for select contacts based on specific intervals (monthly or annually), or specific dates (meetings, birthdays, anniversaries, and more). Plus, after receiving a reminder alert, iKeepInTouch's intuitive interface makes it easy for users to place a call, send an email, write a text message (SMS or iMessage), or even place a FaceTime call.
iKeepInTouch also lets users know when they're in close proximity (1-50 miles) of selected contacts, such as their home, place of work, or any other location entered into the address book. Users can then either try and schedule an impromptu meeting, or if they wish, change direction so that they avoid bumping into their contact.

"iKeepInTouch is designed to make it incredibly easy and effective to get automated, location-based reminders, alarms and alerts for contacts," commented Jerome Leroy of H2Apps, the app's co-creator. "And since we've made it easy for users to import their address book contacts, there's virtually no set-up time. Users simply download the app, import their contacts, enter in their reminders by event, time or location, and they're all set. It's the kind of time and stress-saving app that's ideal for everyone, from business professionals, to busy moms, to students and more."

iKeepInTouch, the innovative app that uses iOS5's new ability to track location- based contacts, is available now as a free download on the App Store.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 3.2 MB

Pricing and Availability:
iKit:iKeepInTouch 1.1 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Business category.

Phonological Awareness App Evaluates Children with Reading Difficult

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Mon Jan 30, 2012 9:15 am (PST)



Phonological Awareness App Evaluates Children with Reading Difficulties - Published on 01/30/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Smarty Ears Releases Phonological Awareness App to Evaluate Children with Speech, Language, and Reading Difficulties. In recent years, clinicians and educators are beginning to recognize that fostering phonological awareness skills in children helps them to learn more effectively once they become aware of the sounds within their language. Profile for Phonological Awareness, Pro-PA, was created to evaluate and describe the phonological awareness skills in children with speech.

Dallas, Texas - In recent years, clinicians and educators are beginning to recognize that fostering phonological awareness skills in children helps them to learn more effectively once they become aware of the sounds within their language. As phonological awareness skills relate to literary development and speech sound, studies have shown that these foundational skills contribute to children's early success in reading, writing, and speech and language development. The first step in this process is to measure the children's skills to determine the type of treatment needed and which areas should be the main focus.

Developed by Canadian Speech-Language Pathologist, Tanya Coyle and published by Smarty Ears, Profile for Phonological Awareness (Pro-PA) was created to evaluate and describe the phonological awareness skills in children with speech, language, and/or reading difficulties. Pro-PA aids speech therapists and teachers in collecting information and gives them the ability to choose which areas of skill development to target and measure their student or patient's treatment effectiveness and skill growth over time.

Pro-PA provides its users with the ability to enter students' information, track their progress, and quickly view a student's skill level or a group's average skill level with color coded scores. The versatile app provides automatic analyses in the following skill areas: blending, deleting, isolating, rhyming, segmenting, and substituting. It also features a color changing counter that helps students to visualize segmenting and provides them with support when attempting segmenting.

Tanya Coyle states, "Whether you are assessing an individual child or entire classrooms, the Pro-PA can give you the information you need about each student's, or group's, strengths and weaknesses. Then, you can target weaknesses more specifically and improve student outcomes."

Pro-PA provides teachers and speech therapists with the flexibility of choosing which sections to administer and the option of skipping sections without compromising the totals in other areas. Most areas are tested with separate information about consonant clusters. Another excellent feature of Pro-PA is the option to add notes throughout the assessment; for faster administration, users can utilize prewritten common errors or answer patterns. Once administration is complete, the results can be immediately emailed and printed.

"As a school board SLP, I include phonological awareness skills in almost every student assessment I do. I have found that it is an important (but often overlooked) skill for reading and writing, as well as articulation skills and auditory processing," she continues, "I created the Pro-PA to use in my own practice, but also with the functionality that many educators and other SLPs may want in a phonological awareness test."

Profile of Phonological Awareness is appropriate for individuals in all age groups; it is currently available for $29.99 and can be purchased from the iTunes app store. The app is compatible with the iPad running iOS 4.0 or above.

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 4.0 or later
* 38.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Profile of Phonological Awareness 1.0.1 is $29.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

Smarty Ears was founded in december of 2009 by Barbara Fernandes, a practicing Speech-Language Pathologist certified by the American Speech and Hearing Association. Smarty Ears was the first company to create apps geared towards speech therapy for mobile devices. Smarty Ears' first application, called Mobile Articulation Probes(name changed to Smarty Speech in 2011) was released in January of 2010 and it has helped many speech therapists to make sessions more dynamic and engaging. Fourteen month later, Smarty Ears has created over 21 applications for children with speech and language delays and disorders such as Stuttering, articulation delays, autism, down syndrome, and language disorders. Our goal is to provide the best tools that engage every children to learn, develop appropriate communication skills and become better communicators. Copyright (C) 2012 Smarty Ears.

The user is reminded of the critical nature of key word search for employers to narrow down the field of applicants. He is then advised to study the employer's own keywords in the employer job description or on the employer website and to select his own achievements which are the best match to specific keywords of the employer.

Since the app emphasizes tailoring a resume for each job or each job type, when the user finishes and saves the resume, the program asks the user to give this resume a title or an identifier, such as a job title or employer Job ID so the user can identify it and store it for future use. The app stores up to eight resumes.

The user then may click on "Share Now" to update his Facebook or Twitter network , then on "email" to send to employers. Apple's native email client appears with a plain text version of the resume, ready to be processed immediately into an employer's key word searchable database and with a PDF version attached, both ready for distribution. The subject line offering the plain text resume, preferred by 80% of employers or the PDF, if preferred, becomes the succinct, time saving substitute for the traditional cover letter. The user then puts in the email address of the selected employer, associate or job board and presses "send". Speed counts. 2WayResume App is based on speed, tech short cuts and social media savvy, a combination which makes it a streamlined, effective tool for job search on the go.

Device Requirements:

Sprightly Software Releases Screen Ruler 2.1 for Mac - Published on 01/31/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Sprightly Software today announces Screen Ruler 2.1 for Mac OS X, an update to their simple, yet powerful utility for working with on-screen graphics. Intuitive, easy-to-use, Screen Ruler can be run in the Dock or in the Menu Bar, including easy keyboard shortcuts. Take accurate measurements anywhere on-screen, even across multiple displays. New in version 2.1, ruler graphics for the box measurement tool now display measurement increments appropriate to the selected unit, and other bug fixes.

Sunshine Coast, BC, Canada - Sprightly Software today is excited to announce Screen Ruler 2.1 for Mac OS X, an update to their simple, yet powerful utility for working with on-screen graphics. Take accurate measurements anywhere on-screen, even across multiple displays. New in version 2.1, ruler graphics for the box measurement tool now display measurement increments appropriate to the selected unit, and other bug fixes.

The Box Measurement Tool provides a way to get the exact pixel width and height of an area anywhere on your display. The Line Measurement Tool determines the length between any two pixels. The Color Picker provides an easy way to obtain a web-ready hex color, or Core Graphics compatible RGB fraction from anywhere on your display. The Grab Image Tool allows one to take a screenshot of anything on-screen.

Key features:
* An intuitive, easy-to-use, no-clutter interface
* Can be run in the Dock or in the menu bar
* Take accurate measurements anywhere on-screen, even across multiple displays
* Two methods to measure: click and drag, or click-move-click
* Proportional measurements can be obtained by holding the shift key
* Easy keyboard shortcuts for initiating measurements, picking a color, taking screenshots, and quickly copying width, height, length, color, and image data
* No lingering rulers after taking a measurement
* Works with multiple displays
* Compatible with Mac OS Snow Leopard (10.6) and Lion (10.7)

New in version 2.1:
* Ruler graphics for the box measurement tool now display measurement increments appropriate to the selected unit
* Corrected a problem with launch-at-login on Mac OS 10.6
* Corrected an issue where the vertical crosshair was off by one pixel

New in version 2.0:
* Screen Ruler can now be run in the menu bar. A new option in Preferences allows one to enable this, as well as a launch-at-login option. (Our most requested feature)
* Screen Ruler can now measure in pixels, mm, cm, inches, and a custom unit, configureable in Preferences. (Our second most requested feature)
* A completely redesigned user interface with new tool icons and a new compact view has been added
* Screen Rulers features can now be accessed from its dock menu
* Holding the shift key when making box or line measurements keeps the measurements proportional
* The box measurement tool features ruler graphics in the top left corner, with measurement indicators at 5 and 25 pixels. This can be disabled in Preferences if the older style measurement box is preferred
* Corrected a bug where the selection of the grab image tool was one pixel too short
* The grab image tool now also lists the grabbed image's width and height
* An option to run Screen Ruler only on the main display has been added. This should help address problems some users are having on certain multi-display configurations, while we work on a more complete solution for future versions

Screen Ruler is a great utility for anyone that works with digital graphics, including: web designers, graphic artists, Xcode programmers, and others.

System Requirements:
* Mac OS 10.6.6 or higher
* 1.0 MB

RGH Games Wins Best App Ever Award for Trashers - Published on 01/31/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

California based RGH Games has announced that Trashers 1.1 won its category in the Best App Ever Awards 2011. Trashers invites kids of all ages to board a garbage truck and clean the streets whilst fighting trash monsters. Players join garbage men Gus and Nico, as well as their feathered friend Skiff, to collect all the trash of a city and defeat Doctor O and her minions. Winning the award is the latest in a long line of testimonials for RGH Games.

Los Angeles, California - RGH Games (a division of Rubicon Group Holding) has announced that Trashers, a game which invites kids of all ages to board a garbage truck and clean the streets whilst fighting trash monsters, has won its category in the 'Best App Ever Awards 2011'. Now in its fourth year, organisers received over 1.5 million votes from the public who chose from 7,243 applications, making the awards the largest of its kind.

Trashers, which was only released in December 2011, underwent two rounds of public voting, beating the popular Catch that Bird and Lego(R) Creationary to the coveted title. It was announced at Macworld Expo in San Francisco by the organisers, 148Apps, which is a leading web-zine that reviews the latest iOS applications to hit the charts.

Winning the award is the latest in a long line of testimonials for RGH Games. The iPhone App Review said the game is "inventive, beautifully drawn and absolutely engaging." Meanwhile AppDictions said "RGH Games has created this unique storyline with plenty of replay value. It features terrific illustrations, graphics and sound, complete with a rumbling garbage truck and belching trash monsters."

Trashers launched two months after the introduction of the critically acclaimed Dragon Eggs game, and is a perfect example of the production values that RGH is famed for, as John Zuur Platten, Director of Digital Media at RGH explains:

"RGH has roots in responsible entertainment, always ensuring that its imaginations are engaging and entertaining as they are educative. So in this particular game, players join garbage men Gus and Nico, as well as their feathered friend Skiff, to collect all the trash of a city and defeat Doctor O and her minions. In doing so, the game promotes eco-living by asking players to build up strength by removing trash from the dirty streets, left by Doctor O, and earning valuable bonuses by recycling."

CEO of RGH, Randa Ayoubi said: "The 'Best App Ever Awards' are special because they celebrate the best apps by gathering the opinions of actual gamers, rather than quantifying the best selling apps on the various download charts. So we are very happy and proud to have this endorsement from the public - testament to the high quality and engaging production values that RGH Games continually creates."

Features of the Trashers game include:
* Good, clean fun - Players fight the filth by racing to collect as much trash as they can
* Explore different worlds - Drive the garbage truck through 3 dirty worlds and 9 levels
* Fight trash monsters - Defeat Doctor O and her evil minions who want to trash the town
* Earn trophies - Complete each level within the time goals to earn trophies and show off wins on Game Center

Device requirements:
* iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, 3/4G iPod touch and iPad
* Requires iOS 3.1.3 or later
* 74.5 MB

Pricing and Availability:

Doodle Fit 1.0 for Mac OS X: Tiling Puzzle Game with 3 Million Downl

Posted by: "prMac Mailer" prservices@prmac.com

Tue Jan 31, 2012 3:02 am (PST)



Doodle Fit 1.0 for Mac OS X: Tiling Puzzle Game with 3 Million Downloads - Published on 01/31/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Gamelion today introduces Doodle Fit 1.0 for Mac OS X, their best-selling, tiling puzzle game that has achieved more than three million downloads. Available for several years for most mobile devices and gaming consoles, this is its first release on the Mac platform. Players must fit the sets of blocks into the given shapes, and a level is complete when all the blocks have been used and there is no free space in the shape. The Mac version features more than 350 puzzles and 13 visual themes in HD.

Sunnyvale, California - Gamelion today is pleased to introduce Doodle Fit 1.0 for Mac OS X, their best-selling, tiling puzzle game that has achieved more than three million downloads. Available for several years for most mobile devices and gaming consoles, this is its first release on the Mac platform. The game challenges players to fit the sets of blocks into the given shapes, both of which are rectilinear, having straight sides that are all connected by ninety degree angles. A level is complete when all the blocks have been used and there is no free space remaining inside the shape. The Mac version features more than 350 puzzles, 13 visual themes displayed in high-definition color graphics, and a Quiz game mode that is available exclusively in this special Mac release.

Doodle Fit derives its name from the simple, blocky doodles one might create on large grid graph paper. All blocks or pieces in a Doodle Fit puzzle can be drawn on graph paper and consist of a figure that encloses one, two, three, or four squares. There are no diagonals, and so blocks have some resemblance to such letters as: T, I, L, etc. Similarly, the shapes of each puzzle can be drawn on graph paper, and consist of straight horizontal or vertical lines connected by ninety-degree angles. There are 10 different Game Packs included with Doodle Fit, and each Pack contains puzzle shapes related to the same topic, e.g., Letters, Christmas, Games, etc.

Feature Highlights:
* Absolutely addictive game play - gamers and press confirm it: one of the most addictive puzzle games currently available
* Unique puzzle shapes - over 350 puzzles of different shapes and sometimes more than one solution ensure lots of fun and replayability
* Several themes - choose from 13 different themes and decide in which theme you want to play
* Hints - a hint-feature helps players solve difficult and more complex puzzles
* High-Definition graphics and animation
* Dual function GUI - allows players to drag blocks into a shape or draw blocks into a shape
* Game packs - unlock 10 different levels of play
* Two modes - play in Normal mode or Challenge mode (a countdown timer allows a limited amount of time to solve the puzzle)
* Free updates - Doodle Fit is constantly updated with more levels, themes, and features

Each Doodle Fit puzzle is solved by dragging the set of blocks, one by one, into the shape so that the shape is completely filled (some shapes contain "holes" inside themselves, so that area is exempted). Returning to the graph paper analogy, the number of squares required to construct all the blocks (puzzle pieces) is always the same as the number of squares enclosed by the puzzle shape. The challenge in each puzzle is discovering a correct arrangement of the blocks so that they fit into the shape perfectly. Sometimes there is more than one solution, but at higher levels of difficulty, the solutions are unique. Hints are available depending upon the number of levels solved.

Game Packs (Puzzle Shapes):
* Beginner
* Letters
* Things
* Christmas
* Games
* Valentines
* Greek
* Helloween
* Summer
* Zombie

Solving each puzzle requires skill, logical thinking, spatial visualization, experimentation, patience, and strategy. Unlike an ordinary jigsaw puzzle, the pieces provided in each Doodle Fit puzzle cannot be rotated to help the player fit the block into the shape. Neither can pieces be flipped; each block, with its own color, must remain oriented as displayed at the start of play. Simpler levels contain just four different blocks, but higher levels may have up to 12 different blocks that must be fit correctly into the puzzle shape.

Themes (Background Graphics):
* Notebook
* Blackboard
* Cookies
* Wood
* Winter
* 8-Bit
* Valentines
* Nature
* Stone
* Helloween
* Summer
* Sci-Fi
* Zombie

"Doodle Fit is the critically acclaimed puzzle-game with over three million downloads and more than a hundred million played sessions on iPhone, iPad, Android, Symbian, Bada, Windows Phone 7, Sony PlayStation consoles, Nintendo DSiWare and Amazon Kindle," stated Sebastian Szczygiel, VP of Gamelion. "And the Mac version is the most advanced, full-featured Doodle Fit game ever made."

System Requirements:
* Mac OS X 10.6 or later
* 64-bit processor
* 56.6 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Doodle Fit 1.0 is $4.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the Mac App Store in the Games category. Review copies are available on request.

Witness 2 - Watch your home from your iPhone or iPad

Witness 2 - Watch your home from your iPhone or iPad - Published on 01/31/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Orbicule today announces Witness 2, a major update to its home surveillance solution for Mac OS X and iOS. Witness turns any Mac into a home alarm system, using its FaceTime camera as a motion sensor. As soon as motion is detected, Witness sends mugshots and video to the owner's iPhone or iPad. Version 2 adds face detection & makes it possible to view live images on-demand. In addition, the new version can automatically arm the alarm when the user leaves his house and disarm it upon his return.

Leuven, Belgium - Orbicule today is thrilled to announce the release of Witness 2, a major upgrade to its home surveillance solution for Mac OS X and iOS. The software turns any Mac into a home alarm system, using its FaceTime camera as a motion sensor. If motion is detected, Witness sends mugshots and video to an iPhone or iPad.

"Every 14 seconds, a house is burglarized in the US alone", said Peter Schols, president of Orbicule. "Isn't it ironic that most of these houses contain computers powerful enough to monitor them and alert the owner of the presence of an intruder?" Witness solves this problem by offering customers a Mac-based alarm system that can be used in homes, small businesses or dorm rooms".

Witness 2 adds a slew of new features:

Sneak Peek:
Watch live images from any Mac in your alarm system on your iPhone or iPad.

Auto-activation:
Witness uses the location of your iOS device to automatically arm the alarm when leaving your house, and disarm it upon your return.

Face detection:
Witness can be set to restrict motion detection to human faces. This may come in handy when you have pets running around the house.

Motion detection sensitivity:
Optimize camera settings for a specific environment.

Multiple cameras:
Connect and use up to 3 USB or Firewire cameras per Mac, making it easier to protect larger areas.

Applescript support:
It's now possible to have AppleScripts executed when arming and disarming the alarm, or when motion is detected. For example, you could turn on your music player to startle the thief.

Witness uses advanced motion detection. The alarm system can be controlled and monitored remotely using either the web app, or the free iOS app. These apps allow the user to remotely arm or disarm the alarm and they instantly alert the owner when motion is detected, showing mugshots and video of the intruder.

System Requirements:
* Witness requires Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) or 10.7 (Lion)
* The optional Witness iOS app requires iOS 4.2 or later

Pricing and Availability:
Witness is available from Orbicule online and is a free upgrade for all registered users. An account costs $39 USD (one-time fee). Student pricing is $29.

955 Dreams earns its fourth App of the Week with Band of the Day on iPad - Published on 01/31/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

955 Dreams has earned its fourth Apple App of the Week feature in a row with the iPad release of Band of the Day. The iPhone version of Band of the Day, released last year, also earned an App of the Week feature upon its release. Growing to hundreds of thousands of users in just a few months, Band of the Day went on to earn the runner-up title for Apple's App of the Year roundup in 2011. 955 Dreams previously earned App of the Week features for The History of Jazz and On the Way to Woodstock.

Mountain View, California - With the release of Band of the Day for iPad, 955 Dreams has been awarded its fourth App of the Week feature. Late last year, 955 Dreams launched a completely new platform for daily mobile publishing with the release of Band of the Day (BoD) for iPhone. The world's first mobile-exclusive music publication was adopted by hundreds of thousands of users in its first few weeks, and Band of the Day was quickly named iPhone App of the Year Runner Up by Apple. Unlike the path of mobile adoption taken by traditional magazine publishers, BoD is built from the ground up for iOS Devices. Expanding its daily magazine platform to the tablet, Band of the Day is now available for the iPad. Also built on the 955 Publishing Engine, BoD iPad app features emerging artists using beautiful magazine layouts, full play songs and easy access for social engagement. Unique navigation mechanisms, like allowing users to flip through editorial pages rather than scrolling, keep user
engagement very high. Band of the Day has proven to be a revolutionary new way to discover great music directly on iOS, as seen by passionate iTunes user reviews and consistent 5 star ratings.

"Our publishing platform has consistently produced high quality products that resonate with users all over the world, allowing us to achieve four App of the Week features in one year. There is an absolute and unrelenting focus on maintaining a high level of quality throughout the product and ensuring that the experience for the user is not compromised in any way," says Founder and CEO Kiran Bellubbi.

955 Dreams first focused on long form experiences like App Hall of Fame title The History of Jazz. Addressing a daily audience demanded a very different set of product design disciplines. Navigation is simple and immediate, content is relevant, right-sized and nimble to load. The feel for the user is both app-like and editorial.

"We were relentless in our design iterations for this publishing platform. We refined every speck of the experience, the UI, the backend, and the overall look of this product. Just like the calendar that Band of the Day is built around, the way band photos reveal as you run your finger over the calendar...this is the result of a thousand tiny iterative decisions. We try very hard to take nothing for granted about the end experience. We strive to delight users!" says Co-Founder and CDO T.J. Zark

The result is an exciting and simple way to find great bands from all over the world, with over half a million unique users in under four months. With the iPad launch the user adoption will quickly top a million - with several million expected by 2013.

New users can enjoy new music and discover great bands and artists daily on their iPads, iPhones and iTouch's. BoD is available for free on the AppStore.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.2 or later
* 15.6 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Band Of The Day 2.0 is Free and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Music category.

Scientific Calculator B1 - End-to-End math operation for iPad and iPhone - Published on 01/31/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

MTbrain IOS Development today announces version 2.9 of Scientific Calculator B1, the popular scientific calculator for iPad, iPhone and iPod touch devices. Powerful, but easy and intuitive to use, Scientific Calculator B1 features a wide range of mathematical operations and common conversion functions, including logarithms, trigonometric functions, roots and arbitrary exponents. New in version 2.9 is 'Formula Injection' a new and interesting alternative for the arithmetic bracket function.

Langenfeld, Germany - MTbrain IOS Development today is proud to announce version 2.9 of the Scientific Calculator B1, a scientific calculator for iPad/iPhone/iPod touch. The main design pattern was to create a powerful, but easy and intuitive to use Scientific Calculator which ensures the continuous workflow from 'end-to-end'. Unlike many 'calculate & forget' calculators, this calculator supports the transparent and reusable operation as it is necessary in science, school and office. Beside many functional improvements (a huge set of physical/chemical constants) and interface improvements the B1 comes along with a complete new way of realizing arithmetic bracket function - called 'Formula Injection'.

Werner Schmidtberg (Chief Developer, MTbrain): "The typical scientific way of solving complex questions or calculation is to cut them in smaller, more transparent and less error prone pieces. That's exactly the model behind formula injection, which we have developed for this version.It is part of the educational design pattern of the Scientific Calculator B1.It lets the user break operations into independent, logical pieces which can be injected later into a running calculation. Utilizing bracket keys and bracket function is no more longer necessary."

The calculator itself uses the arithmetic Infix-Notation system which has been developed by MTbrain from the ground up. A wide range of mathematical operations and of common conversion functions are supported, including logarithms, trigonometric functions, roots and arbitratry exponents. During the whole operation the calculator displays the complete calculation path for each single calculation step. Operators and Brackets are checked and set automatically. The final results and formulas can be persist in the flash memory and as a full record in the internal database as well. The records can be commented for later documentation and can be reused in every detail to continue later operations. The Database records can be sent via email in normal text format for the universal use in other documents.

Especially for scientist and students a glossary with over 600 specific math terms has been setup. It contains Wikipedia links to areas like 'general mathematics', 'algebra', 'mathematical analysis' and 'numerics' to ensure deep explanation. The content of this glossary is bilingual (english & german).

Calculator features at a glance:
* A smart and photorealistic interface with 'hot'- accessoires for important operations
* Realtime typesetting and evaluation of calculations
* Persistent calculations formula, fully reusable for continuing operations
* arithmetic bracket function by Formula Injection
* sliding function key bars
* Smooth and noticeable animations for important operations, like 'edit', 'save', 'delete' und 'reuse'
* 29 arithmetic/scientific and 32 conversion functions covering a wide range of calculation operations, from arithmetic, trigonometric, roots to arbitrary exponents
* a huge set of physical and chemical natural constants
* Over 600 built-in glossary terms
* Ability to export calculations via email

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 4.3 or later
* 2.1 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Scientific Calculator B1 (v2.9) for iPad / iPhone comes along with a standard list price for $1.99 (USD, or equivalent in other currencies) in all iTunes App Store globally. Review copies are available upon request. The launch day will be Friday, 27th -January 15.00 GMT. The very first 1000 download will come for free ($0.00).

App Helps Middle Schoolers Distinguish Real Friends from the Other Kind - Published on 01/31/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Free Spirit Publishing and Electric Eggplant today announces Middle School Confidential 2: Real Friends vs. the Other Kind 1.1, the sequel to their iPad app Middle School Confidential 1: Be Confident in Who You Are. Designed for 8- to 14-year-olds, this release continues the story of Jack, Jen, Chris, Abby, Mateo, and Michelle, a tight-knit group of friends in middle school, and follows them as they work to strengthen friendships while navigating tough social situations.

Minneapolis, Minnesota - Free Spirit Publishing and Electric Eggplant announce the release of their new iPad app Middle School Confidential(TM) 2: Real Friends vs. the Other Kind, the sequel to their iPad app Middle School Confidential 1: Be Confident in Who You Are. This continues the story of Jack, Jen, Chris, Abby, Mateo, and Michelle - a tight-knit group of friends in middle school - and follows them as they work to strengthen friendships while navigating tough social situations.

Real Friends vs. the Other Kind is based on Book 2 of the award-winning Middle School Confidential series written by teen expert and anti-bullying activist Annie Fox, M.Ed., and illustrated by Harvey Award-winner Matt Kindt. Designed for 8- to 14-year-olds, the iPad app gives readers a look at how their peers handle making friends, resolve disputes, and deal with common hazards of the middle school social scene - like gossip, exclusion, peer pressure, and cyberbullying. The app puts decision-making power into the hands of readers, with interactive quizzes that let readers choose how they would handle these situations.

"We all want, need, and deserve friends who accept and respect us for who we are. In the emails I receive from teens, friendship comes up more than any other topic. The questions usually boil down to, 'My friend isn't being a friend. What do I do?'" says Annie Fox. "I wrote the book Real Friends vs. the Other Kind to empower tweens and teens to change the way they deal with feelings and situations - to show them that they are the key to creating the kind of relationships they want."

Real Friends vs. the Other Kind makes full use of iPad technology - containing richly layered audio with movie-like sound effects and music and featuring the option to zoom in for frame-by-frame reading or zoom out for a page-by-page view. Interactive quizzes test readers on what a real friend would do in sticky social situations. An auto-save feature recalls your place in the story and a menu page permits jumping to any of the eight chapters. "Meet the Cast" pages include insider information about the characters.

Carisa Kluver of Digital Storytime said, "I thought Annie Fox's series of graphic novels was cutting-edge in print - Middle School Confidential is even more amazing on the iPad! I am delighted to see the quizzes from the book included in this second app. These interactive activities can help young people integrate the important lessons from the novels into their lives. Electric Eggplant has really perfected an otherwise near-perfect series with this additional interactive content."

Last year, Electric Eggplant released Be Confident in Who You Are, the first iPad app in the Middle School Confidential series, which has garnered praise from Common Sense Media, CNET, iPhone Life, Kirkus Reviews, School Library Journal, and Digital Storytime, among others. The app is currently a finalist in the 2011 Cybils Awards in the book apps category. Be Confident in Who You Are is available on the iPad, NOOK Color, NOOK Tablet, Kindle Fire, and other Android tablets. Normally priced at $2.99, it's currently on sale for $.99 in iTunes.
