N64 Emulator For Jailbroken iPhones On The Way?

TUAW link

“ZodTDD, the developer behind GpSPhone (a Nintendo Gameboy Advance emulator for the iPhone and iPod Touch), announced the development of an N64 emulator for the iPhone and iPod touch. Zodttd believes that the current generation iPhone and iPod touch have the graphic CPU horsepower necessary to run those games. “…I can’t promise it will run games top notch just yet, as things are too early to say. There’s hope though, with a 3D accelerated graphics plugin, as well as an ARM dynarec.”

Now, I’m quite skeptical about it. I was a beta tester of the PSP emulator years ago (when I was following the PSP homebrew scene, God blesses Pspupdates) and it never worked, let’s face it. Could an iPhone emulator do better?

I doubt it.

Cruz, the “social browser” developed by Todd Ditchendorf has been recently updated to version 0.3: the update added Snow Leopard compatibility and other bug fixes. See the complete changelog here.

Anyway, the developer sent a tweet this morning where he mentioned a Twitter plugin for Cruz, still in beta. After a quick test, I found it very interesting and useful.

See the screenshots after the jump.

iTunes 9.0.2 Adds Extra Home Screens To App Management

TUAW link

“You can now put more than 176 apps in the organizer, and those will move on to grayed-out homescreens. You can still access them on the iPhone by using Spotlight, but those grayed-out homescreens only serve as a buffer to hold your overflow apps while you’re organizing them. Doesn’t really help the actual experience of sorting apps, but it should give you some breathing space when dealing with lots and lots of apps.”

Now Apple, please let us move multiple apps on the Springboard.

Onyx 2.1 Available: Adds New Icon, Snow Leopard Support

Onyx, the popular mantenaince tool for Mac OS X, has been updated to 2.1 version.

Alongside with 10.6 support and a new icon, this updates dumps the installer package in favor of drag & drop installation.

I used Onyx many times before and it’s a great and useful application. If you’re running Snow Leopard, you’d better update to improve performances.
