   My advice would be to release it anyway, warts and all. You'll never be truly happy with the internals and, if you're like me, you'll be forever "1 final refactor, 1 extra tweak" away from perfection.

   Works fine for me, too (beta 3 on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad 3). Not the best looking app in the world, though!

   Don't you think Angry Birds was rather "inspired" by Crush the Castle[1]? They did well milking the idea for every penny, and I think they were a key driver of the casual gaming genre (along with Zynga and their Facebook gami

    Slightly OT, but do you know where you stand from an import duty/VAT standpoint? A quick google suggests you could be liable for around £90 in duty & VAT[1] [1] http://www.dutycalculator.com/popular-import-items&#x2F

    While this is true, I think most people treat Kickstart/Indiegogo et all as pre-order services. They're definitely "buying a phone" rather than donating to a project, you only have to look at the comments section of over

    At current levels they need more than 30,000 people to commit to buy an $830 dollar phone which is not expected to released for at least 10 months and with next to no marketing clout. I'm not saying it can't be done but I'd b

    I guess value depends on how many time you're going to use a given font. You'll pay once but could use the same few fonts across many projects.

    It's worth noting that those free certificates are for non-commercial use. Their commercial certs are pretty good value if you need one.

    16GB of ECC memory for servers is a lot more expensive than your Mac Mini's memory. I recently spent £250 on 2x 4GB DIMMs for a Dell Poweredge server[1] (ok DDR2 is older and therefore more expensive, but still). The same configuration

    Although it's not generally their style, I wouldn't rule Apple out of a grab for the budget sector. Rumours concerning a low end, plastic iPhone have been gaining momentum for some time now and they already practically give away t

    The displays don't actually run over thunderbolt, they just share the (mini displayport) connector so there's no need to worry about losing bandwidth.
