Jim O'Connor said he plans to bring it up to the current iOS spec, but it would still be the old version and not 3.3. We're trying to get him to change his mind.

I've been hoping to get Jim O'Connor to do the conversion of v3.3 for i-devices, but the market may be too small.

For the past few days, I've been studying Unity3D - a computer 'language' which allows porting to virtually any device. If all goes well (and I'm not too old to learn anything new), then I'll...

The last few updates have had virtually no impact on sales, but at least with the PC versions, I don't have to pay development cost (there's a little, since Prolific has to add some installer stuff)....

The latest iDevices probably can handle v3.2, and Jim O'Connor's team are looking into it.

Yes, Jim O'Connor's team has stated that i-devices simply haven't had the horsepower to handle MA3.2, so they've been stuck with MA2.6. That may finally be changing. Stay tuned.

The i-Version profits are split so many ways that no one is going to make a large amount. But if it continues like this for a few more weeks, it could allow me to buy a new computer.
