iPhone Cruncher

Washington, DC, September 07, 2011 –(PR.com)– A2L Consulting today announced a first in efficient electronic legal document filing. It has produced and delivered what it believes to be the first hyperlinked electronic brief (“e-brief”) designed specifically for viewing on the iPad.

To date, e-briefs have been built primarily for viewing on a laptop or desktop PC, and this iPad compatible e-brief is believed to be the first of its kind officially used in a court filing. Though A2L Consulting developed this technology last year, it was only last month that a progressive law firm required that the iPad format be provided along with traditionally used electronic PDF files.

E-briefs are electronic versions of paper-based court filings (e.g. motions, briefs, complaints, etc.) where cited materials (e.g. cases, documents, exhibits, etc.) are hyperlinked from the main document instead of being provided in voluminous paper form. Since court filings produced in paper form number in hundreds if not thousands of pages and are reproduced hundreds of times – creating an unwieldy and non-environmental friendly result – they are increasingly being frowned upon by courts.

Before A2L Consulting released its iPad-friendly e-brief, the delivery formats typically utilized were CD/DVD or USB flash drive. While these formats suited most purposes in the past, evolving technology has opened up the opportunity to use other electronic medium – further increasing the reader’s ability to quickly, accurately and efficiently review the brief’s contents.

Said Ken Lopez, CEO of A2L Consulting, “In a climate where accessing information in a user friendly, well organized manner is paramount for understanding the important points of any case, smart companies and their counsel are looking to use the best and most accessible formats available in filing their information.” Toward that end, when a large retailer had an important legal document to file, they and their lawyers made the decision to make the information viewable on an iPad. When their outside counsel surveyed potential suppliers – they found only one vendor that could demonstrate the capability of providing an e-brief on an iPad, and that company

Bellefonte, PA, September 07, 2011 –(PR.com)– AcousticSheep, LLC has developed a free iPhone soothing sounds app that is the perfect companion for SleepPhones®, the unique headphones designed specifically for falling asleep to music or other sounds.

The app is called “SleepPhones” and is available in the Apple App Store in the Lifestyle category. It offers four different soothing sound tracks designed to lull the SleepPhones user to sleep. The 30 minute tracks play on a loop all night long and include “A Minor Thing” (relaxing piano), “Newport Waves” (ocean waves), “Noise” (white noise), and “Pentatonic Waves” (piano with background sounds). You can listen to it with an iPhone or an iPod Touch.

“It’s a simple iPhone app, very easy to use – just click the track you want to listen to, and you can sleep all night,” said Dr. Wei-Shin Lai, MD, CEO of AcousticSheep, LLC and inventor of SleepPhones. “If you have insomnia or a snoring bedside partner, listening to the music in the app with SleepPhones may get you better sleep and wake up feeling great! Plus, it’s free!”

SleepPhones are much more comfortable for falling asleep to music than ear buds, which can hurt ears when inside the ear canal for a period of time. SleepPhones have thin speakers within a soft fleece headband which are removable for machine washing. “SleepPhones and our new iPhone app combine to make a drug-free way to get more sleep,” Dr. Lai said.

Lisboa, Portugal, September 16, 2011 –(PR.com)– iPads, iPhones and iPods include great video capabilities. But most movies we come across with (in email or on the Internet) aren’t in Apple’s supported formats – MPEG4/H264.

Users have two possible solutions. Either buying the video files directly from the iTunes store, or going through the process of converting each video and then sync it with iTunes.

The new It’s playing app adds the ability to play any video, in almost any format (flv, avi, mkv, ogg, wmv, amongst 19 others) in Apple’s iOS.

Video transfer between your computer and your “iDevice” is quite simple: just drag and drop the file to iTunes. It’s Playing also enables users to open videos that reach them by email, dropbox or surfing the web..

But, It’s Playing real breakthrough is Addition’s tailor-made technology – AdditionFlow .

The decoding and presentation of the video file in real time is one of the most complex tasks computers have to process nowadays. Even on a powerful desktop we sometimes experience delays in the decoding of video frames. This originates a pause in the video, a de-synchronization with the sound or both.

AdditionFlow was developed as an extremely optimized process which reduces the effects of pause and de-synchronization to a minimum.

According to Diogo Vitorino, Addition’s CEO: “The new It’s Playing is a cutting edge software that adds value to Apple’s iDevices. Even amongst 500.000 apps, I believe it will stand out and make a difference to many users.”

As of September 13th, and after Apple’s validation, It’s Playing 2.0 will be available in App Stores all around the world for 1,58EUR or $1.99.

Scottsdale, AZ, September 16, 2011 –(PR.com)– SpinIsland LLC, (http://www.spinisland.com) a mobile app publisher, announces the release of Piffle Connect app for iPhone and iPad users. Piffle Connect adds a new dimension to social word games. Piffle connect uses highly engaging graphics and animation to make the game more visually interesting. Unlike some other word games, Piffle Connect ads the element of excitement by motivating players to race against a clock to complete each turn before the timer runs out. The faster the player completes their turn, the more bonus points they rack up

SpinIsland LLC ran several focus groups during the last few months. “The results were even better than we expected as the addiction players exhibited while playing the game became obvious very quickly,” reports David Hirschfeld, Co-founder of SpinIsland LLC. “We were often asked when the game would be in the app store so they could download it to their own iPhone.”

Piffle Connect is the newest addition to the growing trend of social game apps. Piffle Connect does what its name implies. It allows iPhone / iPad users to connect with and play against other iPhone users. “During lunch and coffee breaks, our developers are often found playing the game. We like to think of this as incidental testing,” muses Barkan Saeed, Co-founder of SpinIsland LLC. “If our developer’s interest is any indication, we may have a winner on our hands.”

Piffle Connect is compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 and both versions of the iPad. It is design for people who love playing word tile games such as Words With Friends. Piffle connect includes the following playing modes:

i. Single Player
ii. Local multiplayer mode with up to 4 players at a time. This mode works by passing the device to the next player when it’s their turn.
iii. Virtual mode allows the player to invite opponents by connecting to Facebook Friends or allowing the Piffle Connect server to randomly match players together from anywhere in the world.
iv. Four game modes include:
a. Quick 4 rounds,
b. Standard

The Australian Supreme Court voted unanimously to overturn Apple’s injunction on the Samsung Galaxy Tab. The injunction will remain in effect until the end of the week, and Apple will have the chance to appeal this decision before the injunction is lifted. If Apple’s appeal fails, then Samsung can begin selling the Galaxy Tab in Australia starting Friday at 4 pm.

This decision is good news for Samsung, which has been waiting for months to launch its Galaxy Tab in Australia. Apple filed its patent infringement lawsuit and asked for an injunction in August of this year. Samsung agreed to delay the launch of their tablet while Justice Annabelle Bennett made her decision on the injunction request. In October, Justice Bennet sided with Apple and Samsung was forced to postpone any launch plans. The Korean company has been working hard to get this ban overturned, so it can release its tablet during the lucrative holiday shopping season.
