A new iPhone game: Anomaly War Zone Earth

Anomaly War Zone Earth is a new game coming from a group of Polish developers 11 Bit Studios. This project is an interesting tower defence based game.
The story goes like this: in the near future, year 2018 an asteroid hits planet earth. The place receiving this hit is Baghdad, Iraq. Soon it became obviously this was not an asteroid but an alien space ship. The aliens have built an giant dome which kept hidden their activities to outside view. Your task is to lead Earth’s defence forces in an attack aiming to breach into the aliens positions.
This game is basically a tower defence game with a twist – instead of defending the tower you are attacking it. You can control ground and air units and you must fight through strong alien resistance to save planet Earth.

iPad 2: international launch day on Friday

Since Apple had barely enough iPad 2 tablets to satisfy demand in US alone it shouldn’t come as a surprise if Apple decides to delay the international release of iPad 2.

But to our amazement and surprise, it appears that this will not be the case unlike the international release of the original iPad last year.

In fact Apple has made it well known that the iPad 2 will be available in 25 countries worldwide on this Friday. Other countries like Hong Kong and Singapore will have the new iOS device early next month.
Same as within US, iPad 2 will be available in Apple retail stores or if you prefer you can order your device online at Apple’s website.

iOS 4.3.1 coming in April?

We have heard rumors coming from Apple that the Cupertino, California giant is busily preparing the release of the iOS 4.3.1 upgrade. This is expected to be released in the first week of April. The reason for the upgrade among others are to patch up the jailbreak exploits especially the jailbreak for iPad 2 seems troublesome for Apple. They also want to upgrade the baseband for Apple 3GS and the original iPad as this seemed to be a good way to prevent the unlock for those devices.

Here is the list of expected upgrades and patches:
