Well, PegJump is finally live and available in the App Store. So far it's been getting some awesome reviews, and people seem to enjoy it.

It seems that many people would like a timer. This is something I considered initially, but left out for the sake of getting this thing released. Today I went ahead and built in a timer, as well as optional sounds for peg movements. Version 1.2 is ready, and will hopefully be available as soon as I can get apple to accept the upload of the updated version.

I've been watching intently all the news about the AppStore and iPhone firmware 2.0 since it all started coming down the pipe early this morning. Leo Laporte has been covering news about everything iPhone for the last half a day or so over at TwitLive.tv.

I called in, and got through to Leo much quicker than expected, in fact...I wasn't sure I expected to get through at all. We had a brief chat about some of the things he had spoken to Erica Sadun earlier in the night: the apparent affinity for big developers and horrible UI (some of them one in the same). I feel like a large portion of the applications are seriously lacking in any sort of Macintosh inspired "user experience". I hope this is just a bad first showing, and we'll see attrition take it's effect over the long haul.

Huge thanks to Leo for taking a moment to talk to me, and also for showing Dashbuster and the SeventyNineLines webpage on the live feed.
