Zen Bound iPhone App Review
A friend of mine asked me about the best puzzle games for the iPhone. I’ve played Rolando and I’ve played Blocked. Both are pretty engrossing puzzle apps that you can play at home or for a few minutes in line at the bank.
But, I just found another great iPhone puzzle game called Zen Bound. As the name implies, the game is meant to elicit peace and calming for the user.

RedLaser iPhone Bar Code Scanning
We have broken ground on creating an iPhone app for a client using RedLaser’s bar code scanning SDK.
Ethervision has purchased code in the past to enhance the functionality of one of our apps and I will say this: RedLaser is the real deal. The smart folks at Occipital completely nailed the bar code scanning functionality using a private call to Apple’s video codec.
As most groundbreaking apps are, RedLaser was approved in the app store quickly, but other bar code scanning apps were not. Since then, that has changed and now the SDK is being approved for other bar code scanning apps.
If you want to save money this holiday season, pick up RedLaser and bring it shopping with you. These guys have nailed the functionality and the demand is there to prove it. RedLaser App (iTunes Link)
