Dropping $9.00 (to 99 cents!) for one day only (September 30th) is The Stone of Destiny. Read up on the game here at the developer’s web site.

I looked at Billy Frontier a while ago (see here) and at the time the price had gone back to its normal price of $5.99 which caused me to give it a “meh” rating. I recommended they drop it back to the introductory price of $2.99 because I personally thought it would fare pretty well at that level. Well they did that and now they’ve done one better — the mega sale price is only $0.99!!
Honestly - having played the game and still playing the game - 99 cents is a great deal. Jump on it!

I’m going to shamelessly grab the details on this from TUAW and leave you to go and download it yourself. But after a long day… at least there was a little bit to smile about!
Some of the new features are:
Facebook Chat
Address book lookup
New, easier to use interface, including notifications and the full news
feed
Write on friends’ walls and view their full profiles
Photo tags (holding your finger down on the photo will show them)
People search, friend requests and your full inbox/inbox search
And the list goes on… Happy Downloading!

edit — whoops, just wanted to add that 2.2 is NOT released yet. These are just some leaked screenies from devs and whatnot.
This isn’t a ground-breaking change, but apparently Apple thought that the magnifying glass button in Safari wasn’t getting enough use. So now they’ve changed it and put a mini search bar just to the right of the address bar and moved the refresh button right inside of the URL bar. Things certainly look a bit more cramped, but I’ll wait until I give it a shot meself to start my complaining.

Need I say more? Ok - I will. YAY! No more Bullshit reviews that are nothing more than - “this apps sucks - it should be free because I don’t think you should charge me for anything. Everything should be free” OR “You want me to spend a dollar on THIS?!”
Unfortunately, now we won’t get to see as many gems like this one:
Maybe now the star ratings will actually mean something?!

Consider this another one of those moments when reading what I have to say is NOT the thing you should be doing right now. Yes, I know it happens all too often - but really. Stop reading and click the link below to go to the App Store and pick up eWallet for CHEAP! (Limited Time = Oct. 3rd)

So, you’re an independent iPhone developer and you have the next great app. But, you know if that app hits the app store and doesn’t work worth a poop … that app will be DOA. It’ll be ripped to shreds in seconds by the millions of users in the store and the millions of bloggers and you’re chances of making any money will end up down the tubes in a heartbeat. So what do you do? Well, you beta test that’s what. Now - where do you find beta testers? Until now - that’s been a tough question to answer.
Not so anymore. Welcome onto the scene - iBetaTest.com!
Now, iBetaTest.com is not a fully live site yet, but you can get on there, get registered as either a developer or a tester and they’ll let you know when things start taking off. So, click on for the press release and then click on through to iBetaTest.com to get signed up!

It’s been a real PITA trying to get back into reading. I used to read books fairly often when I was in high school, but the habit just kinda withered away and died when I got more PC and console games. This is going to sound ridiculously pathetic, but I actually get annoyed by having to hold the book up and turn the page. Yes, I realize I sound like a spoiled digital brat.
Luckily for me there’s Stanza. For the low low cost of $0 cash money I get an incredible ebook reader on the iPhone that even does wi-fi syncing of books from my PC. I’ve already read four books on the iPhone and am just loving the experience. You can swipe or tap to switch pages, you can edit text size, and you can even lock the orientation (something I wish I could do in Safari sometimes). The wi-fi sync is as simple as opening the desktop app, opening the book you want to sync, and then loading up Stanza on the iPhone to download the file to the device.
If you haven’t tried Stanza from the App Store for your eBooking needs, I highly suggest you give it a shot!
Their website is here, and you can find their App easily enough through iTunes.

Engadget Editor-at-Large has just done what Engadget does best and taken a well worded, on-topic, heartfelt shot and put it straight across the bow of Apple. It’s a great post - GO READ IT.
So it seems to me, you have two possible courses of action to clean up this mess, Apple: one, the bare minimum of courtesy and respect for its developers, and the other, full-on-righteous. If absolutely nothing else, you need to post some very clear, very easily interpreted guidelines as to what will and will not fly in the App Store. No more mystery, no more concern as to whether the investment associated with developing a program will be for naught if some faceless App Store approval technician semi-arbitrarily decides to hit reject. Just lay it out for all to bear and follow. Sure, there will be a lot of hating going on when Apple says in explicit terms that Mozilla has zero hope of ever getting Firefox on the iPhone, but at least the crippling uncertainty is removed from the equation. You shouldn’t have to be one of the hallowed few approved by the iFund to be certain before you start work on your app that it will be approved.

Its pretty obvious in the video - but I haven’t spent a lot of time yet with the game. I will say though the price at roughly $5 is decent. You’ll end up spending a lot of time with the game - but it’ll be in 5 minute spans…
You can find Missile Command and a few other apps from Atari in the appstore.
