Re: Updated to PR 1.3 and regretting it

Re: iPhone 4 - Loses Reception When You Touch the Side (Who says Apple products are "Better Quality"?)

Re: BurgerFace: Face tracking in a game

Wicked cool game, I didn't have a lot of high hopes for it when I saw the screen shot, but after playing it I have to admit it's quite addicting and amazing to play. Great job on it!
