just bought the app. Really wishing it could recognize a contact name like it does phone numbers and then allow me to text that person.

Hi Mike – sorry, didn't spot this comment for a bit – not sure why. Anyway – I did the screencast using Screensplittr on the iPhone (which just allows the sharing of its screen) and DemoGod on the Mac, to display that shared screen on my Mac. Then Screenjelly records both voice and what's on the Mac's screen. Screensplittr is a JB app available in the Cydia store. DemoGod is available for (free I think) download on the web. It's Mac only I believe, and can be DLed here:

I know what you mean on the price and on the likelihood that Apple will be bringing this soon Bobby.

Thanks for that, looks like a useful app, I will have to consider the $4.99 – will have to see. A quick JB / Cydia app I just installed was Lock Calendar – not new but also found that cool, kinda like IntelliScreen.
How did you made the video, obviously is using Screenjelly site but how did you get the iPhone on there, doesn't look like you VNC'd into the iPhone, or using by the SDK emulator. Curious.
Keep up the great reviews and cool content !!

This is easily one of the best apps available. But I find it hard to pay the 4.99. I have no doubt it will be worth it, but I'm not a fan of paying for jailbroken apps, because you just know Apple will integrate this into the OS. The only thing IMO that the pre has that trumps the iPhone. Great find!!

that's a lot like what the Palm Pre's universal search does. Holy heck — that's so useful i might just JB for that.
