MicroSim Cutter

The MicroSIM Cutter arrived today in preparation for my iPhone 4S which I ordered. I was a bit nervous at first, but it worked really well. It even came with 2 adapters so that you can still use your sim card in other devices.

You can pick them up on bidorbuy, or www.microsimcutter.com

Cut The Rope

The previously iOS-only game Cut the Rope is now available for Android.

There is a free version on GetJar, or a paid version on the Android Market

Cut the Rope is a physics based puzzle game. The basic idea is that there is a piece of candy tied to several pieces of rope which you must in the correct order, and at the right time to collect as many stars as possible. The end goal is to drop the candy into the green monsters (although could be a frog ?) mouth.

The iphone version can be downloaded from iTunes

The game was developed by ZeptoLab.

To recognize 2 gestures simultaneously, such as to enable panning and rotating at the same time, there is a method called gestureRecognizer:shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer: in the UIGestureRecognizerDelegate protocol. By default it returns NO so implement the method and return YES.

- (BOOL) gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)otherGestureRecognizer {
 
    return YES;
 
}
