2:33 AM - iPhone App Controls a Tiny Car

Although a little clunky to set up, Hot Wheel's iNitro Speeders gives the option of using an iPhone to control its little remote control cars. The iPhone app includes the standard dual stick controller, but also lets you drive the car with the iPhone's accelerometer, choose a predefined driving pattern, or draw your own pattern.

 

Push the control stick forward, and the car takes off like a shot. Hit the turn stick and it pulls 180s and 360s. The car is a little too fast, making it difficult to control. Instead of having the front wheels actually pivot, the car turns by torque, shifting power to the left or right.

 

But the cool thing is the iPhone app controller. The car relies on infrared signals for its remote control, something not native to the iPhone. So Hot Wheels includes an infrared module that plugs into the iPhone's headphone port. It is not the most elegant solution, but it works.

 

Hot Wheels says the iNitro Speeders are appropriate for children eight years old and up. Not many children that age own an iPhone, but many a parent hands over a phone for games. And although having to attach the control module to the iPhone is a little clunky, the app gives some interesting control possibilities. It also includes a built in racing game you can play anywhere.

1:50 AM - New iPad Bank App in 2012

IGG Software, which is planning to release a version of its iBank financial software for the iPad sometime later this year, has teased a new feature of the unreleased app on its developer blog. The product now has a name -- iBank Access -- and will feature a new optional service to automatically keep bank records and the app in sync every time the app is launched. The new feature, which expands the number of institutions available, will be available by subscription.

 

The program has largely been built by veterans from Intuit, the makers of Quicken who have had a spotty, on-again-off-again relationship with the Mac and iOS market. Intuit is presently planning to upgrade Quicken 2007 to make it Lion-compatible, which should be released on or around tax time. The iBank program has emerged as one of a handful of popular alternatives for people who can't find what they want from Quicken.

The iBank developers also say they will be adding iCloud syncing compatibility into forthcoming editions, and maintaining Mobile Me iDisk compatibility until the service goes offline in June. IGG Software hopes to have the finished iBank Access for iPad out sometime during the summer.
