Wave/Thief for iPhone is free

Thanks to freesoulvw for pointing out that this app is now free. Might be of use to you in collecting samples?

As May comes to an end I'd like to say a big thank you to all the developers who have provided promo codes, dropped their prices and made special deals to celebrate Palm Sounds 5th birthday.

I really appreciate it. Thank you!

How much did you spend?

This was a little suggestion to see how much you ended up spending on apps over Palm Sounds fifth birthday this month.

I'll only run the poll for a couple of days, but it might be interesting to see what you did spend!

Would a daily round up of apps be useful?

The last few days I've posted a round up of free apps and apps that are on sale. Would that be useful on an ongoing basis? Perhaps not daily, but regularly?

Last chance for a lot of these sale prices

Today is the last day for a lot of the apps on sale for Palm Sounds fifth birthday, so if there's any you err holding out on now's the time to act. The list is here, plus the Korg apps (iElectribe, iMS-20 etc).

Don't miss out!

Yes you want the sounds of a BBC Micro on your iPhone

Which is handy as Pixelh8 is cooking one up right now. You can read about it at his site, and if you just can't wait for the release then all the samples are available too.

Who could ask for more?

Improvox update and contest

Improvox gets a small update:

Connectivity to SoundCloud contest where users can compete to win a free iRig Mic (contest ends July 1, 2011)

I'd forgotten about this contest, but well worth taking a look at if you're interested in winning an iRig Mic.

iPhone 4S in 2011 and 5 in 2012?

Lots of rumours that this year we'll see an iPhone 4S this year with a better camera and possibly a dual core processor, and then the iPhone 5 next year. This seems to make sense to me as it is pretty much what they did with the iPhone 3G and 3GS.

Personally I'll probably skip the iPhone 4S and wait it out for the 5. What about you?
