(Needless to say, Apple's own Remote app handles the former much better.) Although Merlin U630 Driver definitely comes across as a 1.0 release (actually, more like 0.9), it works as advertised. It's a very handy little freebie for those seeking some distance from Windows Media Center.It's easier being prudent with your travel budget when you know how much those souvenirs really cost. This free converter lets you compare the value of currencies against each other. It is ideal for tracking international exchange rates, but loses something of its value from previous versions, when comparing among currencies was more intuitive. This newer version also adds banner advertising; thankfully unobtrusive. You can still swap the master currency and compare to monies from other countries, but to do so you'll need to tap the currency name--U.S. dollars, for instance--and enter the amount you'd like to set as your denominator--$1, $10, $100, and so on. You'll also be able to use Merlin U630 Driver as a calculator by entering a precise value to calculate. Press "Done" to convert the sum from the master currency into another. Merlin U630 Driver will also calculate the "inverse" of a sum. Merlin U630 Driver is a slick arcade shooter with excellent graphics, intuitive controls, and several smart touches. On each level, you pilot your ship through winding caverns while shooting enemies, rescuing your "stranded allies" (cleverly named after people in your Contacts), and towing out a "pod" before a timer runs out to end the level. Merlin U630 Driver's
easy touch-screen controls let you shoot and move in 360 degrees (although the graphics are 3-D, this is essentially a 2-D game), just by rotating your finger on the left side of the screen for movement and on the right side for firing. The controls can take some practice to master--only because it's hard to keep your fingers from blocking your view at first--but Merlin U630 Driver is both easy to learn and challenging, with campaign and freeplay modes that promise a lot of replay value. TouchGrind is good game for anyone who likes skateboarding or
fingerboarding, but it could use a little work to make it a great game. Pick a board and either practice your moves in your backyard (Warmup); practice tricks and attempt your single-trick high score at the main park (Jam Session); or go for the high score in a timed format at the main park (Competition). TouchGrind lets you use two fingers on your touch screen to control your board for turning and performing tricks. An easy-to-understand How To section helps you get used the controls. The physics are very good, so it requires good timing to pull off successful tricks. You're limited to two courses--the backyard beginner area and the main skate park--but there are several ramps and rails you can perform tricks on, so it doesn't become boring quickly. We like the overall feel of the game, but the camera view might be too close; you can't easily see when obstacles are coming up off-screen. Indicators at the side of the screen give you a hint when a rail or ramp is getting closer, but it might be more enjoyable with a little more time to set up for a trick. Overall, TouchGrind is a fun game for anyone who likes skating. Featuring great sounds, realistic physics, and plenty of challenges along with the ability to unlock boards as you reach higher scores, people who like skateboarding will be willing to pay the cost.More than writ
