After pending review for more than 8 months, we are happy to announce that KidFlix was officially approved for sale today!
KidFlix is for parents with small children. KidFlix stops kids from accidentally activating the on-screen controls while listening to audio or watching videos on your iPhone or iPod Touch. Therefore eliminating accidental exits, fast-forwards, etc and therefore eliminating the need for you to constantly fix the problem.
KidFlix is not meant to be a substitute for proper child care, but instead to be a helping hand in keeping your child entertained.
As a parent of a young child I know how valuable of a tool this program can be when you are at say a restaurant and your child starts getting bored.
You can purchase KidFlix for $1.99, directly from the App Store by following the URL:

I got an email earlier this month from Macworld, letting me know that iDeskCal had received coverage in the October 2009 issue.
Needless to say it is the first issue I was eagerly awaiting to show up in the mail.
(not that it’s not a good magazine normally, just not as good as with me in it)
When it finally came I was even happier to find that it was mentioned not only once, but twice in the same Months magazine!
The first was what I was expecting, a review of iDeskCal.
(If you have been following this site for a while, you will remember that several months ago Macworld had done an online review of iDeskCal)

The second mention was smaller, but still nice…
It was in a section they did this month called “Budget Mac”.
The idea was for three Mac users to build their ultimate setup for $300.
iDeskCal showed up in the “Student’s” setup.
I took the liberty to create a little collage of the main items.
For the full text please pick up a copy of the magazine.

iDeskCal was recently reviewed in the French Mac magazine, VVMac and received 4.5 out of 5 stars!
The issue is on news stands for the next two months.
