iPhone App Review – Ant Raid

Samsung is making the A5/A6 processors for the iPhone and other gear in Texas. The company is reportedly seeking $1 billion in funding to boost production of the chips. The Thursday Apple event is tipped to be for product like “GarageBand for eBooks.” Sounds like a self-publishing system is on the way to me. That creepy Steve Jobs action figure has been canceled . The company set to build the toy has caved to legal threats and the feelings of the Jobs family.

Nissan of all companies has rolled out a new case for the iPhone called the Nissan Scratch Shield . Any scratches to the case will be self-healed thanks to a special gel-like finish. The new Renew SleepClock for the iPhone will be coming this March for $199. The clock has sensors for monitoring user breathing and movement to log your sleep cycle. The Navy is thinking about using iOS devices to allow control of its drone RoboCopters. Having flown toy helicopters that use iOS devices fro control, I hope the Navy has better apps.

If you are a fan of Star Wars or Lipton Brisk tea, a new app is out for iOS that you might want to check out. Lipton and Star Wars are teaming to advertise the coming Phantom menace flick in 3D. To celebrate the tie up the app is called Brisksaber and it is available right now for download. The app has Darth Maul speaking, which is odd considering he rarely speak in the original. He hops around talking and playing with his lightsaber until he drinks a tea and gets happy. Apparently, Yoda and some other Jedi are in the ads too. I’m not sure what to think of the 3D treatment on the films. I wasn’t a huge fan of the new films to start with. Obviously, any fan will have to see the 3D flicks if for no other reason than to be able to complain about how bad they suck. [youtube LwabxgoSGZY] [ via SlashGear]
