Snappers

There is a game called Snappers on the iPhone.  I don’t know if it is available for android.   It is a puzzle game that is similar to nuclear fission.  

 

I love the game.  Some of harder puzzles have taken either several minutes of trial and error or several minutes of thinking or some combination of both for me to figure them out.

RE: Fastest wireless in SLC?

I have gotten 4Mb just from my office.  Somebody I know with a 4S phone got 5Mb from the Salt Lake Community College, where I only got 3Mb with my iPhone 4 from the same location.  His phone showed a “4G” network even though his phone is not technically 4G.  Until recently I could only get about .5Mb.   - John Coffey

I ordered a refurbished iPad 2 from Apple for $349.

Apple waited till a couple of hours after the iPad 3 announcement to drop the price on the iPad 2.

25 Billion Apps downloaded.

Apple - iTunes - 25 Billion App Countdown

http://www.apple.com/itunes/25-billion-app-countdown/

Been watching the counter for awhile. It just went from 24,966
million to 24,905 million when I did a refresh of my web browser.
This tells me two things: The website counter is not real time and
occasionally they update it to bring it in align with reality.
