Unique iPhone and iPad Mini Camera Gadget - Published on 10/31/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Neccessory Ltd. is pleased to announce its new HiLO Lens iPhone and iPad camera accessory, has just launched on Kickstarter. The HiLO Lens is bringing a completely new angle to mobile photography. The first right angle lens available for the iPhone and iPad, the HiLO Lens offers functionality like the swivel/rotating screen common on modern digital cameras. The revolutionary HiLO Lens redirects the camera 90 degrees so it becomes easy to get more creative angles in your photos.

Auckland, New Zealand - Neccessory Ltd. is pleased to announce its new HiLO Lens is the first right angle lens and has just launched on Kickstarter. The HiLO Lens accessory brings the advantages of swivel/rotating digital camera screens to the iPhone and iPad.

Early digital cameras came with fixed screens but in later models swivel/flip/vari-angle screens became popular. This new freedom meant the screen no longer needed to be aligned with the scene, so awesome photos from unique angles became possible. Many photographers insist on having this camera feature.

Like early digital cameras, today's smartphones such as the iPhone and tablets like the iPad and iPad Mini have the screen and camera in a fixed position. This makes it difficult to capture low angle shots, or take photos over a crowd. The revolutionary HiLO Lens redirects the camera 90 degrees so it becomes easy to get more creative angles in your photos.

For the iPad and iPad Mini the HiLO Lens makes photography much more practical. Tablets are uncomfortable to hold at arms length when framing photos, they also look out of place. With the HiLO Lens the tablet can be held at waist level and the photo of the horizon framed while looking down at the iPad screen.

"HiLO Lens offers possibilities for the iPhone and iPad that never existed before. The HiLO Lens is fantastic for getting low level photographs of young children and pets - just like the pros do" said Mark Hampton the creator of HiLO Lens.

The Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign has been launched to bring HiLO Lens into production. Anyone can back the HiLO Lens project on Kickstarter now and receive one of the first HiLO Lens to be produced.

To fund the initial production of HiLO Lens the team turned to Kickstarter, a crowdfunding website. Backers on Kickstarter can pre-purchase HiLO Lens now. Only after backers pledge a total of $27,500 (USD) on Kickstarter will the pledges be collected, then the initial production run will be made. If the funding goal is not reached then backer's pledges are not collected. HiLO Lens has already raised over 60% of the goal! Backers can pre-order the HiLO Lens now for only $60 on Kickstarter. If the Kickstarter campaign is successful then In 2013 the HiLO Lens will retail for $79.95

HiLO Lens makes it easier than ever to take memorable photos with an iPhone. With HiLO Lens discover a new angle. Visit the HiLO Lens project on Kickstarter.

The iMums' Named Top App Resource for Children with Special Needs - Published on 10/31/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The iMums' website has been touted as a dependable resource for parents, students and educators and has gained a reputation as one of the best go-to sites for reviews and news on apps for children with and without special needs. The iMums' are very honored to be included in a round-up of top websites for educational apps featured on the 60 Minutes website alongside some other great resources like Apps for Homeschooling, Appy Mall and Smart Apps for Kids.

Mirani, Australia - Children with special needs who have previously been unable to converse with those around them are being introduced to technology such as tablets and smartphones as a solution to facilitate communication and to offer learning opportunities to improve other skills. A recent segment on 60 Minutes Australia titled 'First Words' featured several children and adults diagnosed with Autism using iPad apps to communicate with others.

The iMums' website has been touted as a dependable resource for parents, students and educators and has gained a reputation as one of the best go-to sites for reviews and news on apps for children with and without special needs. The iMums' are very honored to be included in a round-up of top websites for educational apps featured on the 60 Minutes website alongside some other great resources like Apps for Homeschooling, Appy Mall and Smart Apps for Kids.

"As a parent of a child with special needs, I know firsthand how difficult it can be to find the right app for my child. Having a resource like The iMums helps me understand what apps are available to help my child", says one loyal reader of the website. "I appreciate everything that you do to help educators/parents have the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions regarding what is best for the children they interact with. Your site is such a true gift on the internet as it is so packed with information", claims another.

Earlier this year, The iMums' were listed as one of 100 Best Websites for Speech Pathologists following their highly successful event 'Let's Talk: Speech and Language'. This event highlighted apps that are useful for speech therapy and language development. During Autism Awareness Month in April, The iMum's curated a list of apps recommended specifically for children with autism. The article is regularly updated as new quality apps for autism are reviewed.

"Our article garnered significant attention and helped to raise awareness of these invaluable apps that provide a voice for non-verbal children, help with speech and language development, work on social skills and fine motor skills and provide resources to use in Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA)," says Mary Mahon of The iMums. "As well as apps designed for children on the autism spectrum; there are many more educational apps that we have reviewed that can also be useful for working on areas of difficulty such as fine motor skills, reading, writing, spelling, and math. Many of these apps can be used to assist all ages, not just children."

For in-depth reviews of apps for children with special needs and product reviews of iPad cases and other protective accessories, visit The iMums website. The iMums' regularly feature great giveaways of apps and products and will shortly be launching a giveaway for an iPad Mini. To ensure you don't miss your chance to enter, be sure to subscribe to their blog or follow on Facebook and Twitter.

London, United Kingdom - Sensei Games today is proud to announce that the game Sneezeman: Escape from Planet Sneeze, based upon the cult TV cartoon character Sneezeman has finally come to iOS devices (iPhone, iPad and iPod touch).

Set in the Sneezeman universe, and with exclusive artwork from the character's creators Modern Toss, Sneezeman: Escape from Planet Sneeze is an arcade style platform game in which the hapless hero is chased across levels by a relentless sneeze cloud that's intent upon setting off a chain of catastrophic sneezing.

Players must guide Sneezeman across 5 themed worlds and over 60 levels whilst avoiding a wide array of enemies including zombies, evil clowns, ghosts, rats, aliens, and robots. The object of the game is to help Sneezeman collect pills that will help control his sneezing and enable him to make it to the level exit in the best possible time.
