Eucalyptus – Review
A lot of controversy has surrounded the rejection of Eucalyptus. For the past week, it has stood as an example of how Apple’s approval policy censors content as opposed to protecting end users from malicious code. Apple’s reappraisal of their decision was due, in part, to the vociferous objections raised by community members who heard about the applications rejection. Eucalyptus is now available on the app store for $9.99. Now that it has been accepted, the only remaining question is whether or not it’s worth your money.
Noreve Tradition B “Dark Vintage” Review
I was excited to receive my Noreve Tradition B iPhone case, which arrived in the mail this week. Upon opening the package I was struck by the care taken in packaging the case. Every Noreve case comes with a black gift box to store your case and/or wrap it as a gift for somebody else. What’s more, the lid of the box is stacked under the bottom so that you can see your case in all its glory before opening the package. This made unboxing the product especially pleasurable.
The build quality of the case itself is quite superb. I received the Dark Vintage, which is a dark suede outer coat and a leather inner coat. It is incredibly soft to the touch and looks quite classy. While I initially thought that the softness of the case would detract from its ability to protect my iPhone, there appears to be stiff inserts in place to protect the device.

Loading...Reader Review – Feeds
I am I huge fan of WOiP and check it more often than any other iPhone feed by far (username: derickvaladao). I recently bought Byline off your recommendation and really enjoyed it. However, I started to dislike it for a number of reasons. First, they rarely engage with their user community and updates are few and far between. Second, their app is really slow when trying to handle a large amount of folders.
I recently went searching for a better app and stumbled across Feeds by prime31 software. They launched their first version a while back and it wasn’t very impressive. However, they have been updating it regularly and actively engaging with their customers to make the product better. I purchased it last night and realized that it is better than Byline in a number of ways:
