Knights of Pen and Paper now updated to +1 edition
The excellent iOS RPG Knights of Pen and Paper has been updated to the +1 Edition (as we heard it would be back at GDC ) and is now available as a free update on the App Store. This new version, which is technically 2.02, brings lots of new content, game updates, new dungeons to explore, and many other extras. For example, there’s now a place called The Tavern, where you can keep old heroes and swap in new ones. Several new battle options nearly turned Knights of Pen and Paper into entirely new game. The +1 edition was spurred on by the game’s new publisher, Paradox. Thanks to that collaboration, the game is also now available on Steam for $9.99. But again, the iOS version is a free update, so if you’ve grabbed the game already, do be sure to download and give this version a try. If you haven’t purchased it yet, you can grab it now for $2.99.

Neat revises mobile scanning app, adds expense reporting
Pushing towards a paperless future, the neat folks at Neat have released version 2.0 of Neat for iOS . The new build of the scanning-on-the-go application features much faster performance, scan annotation, new sharing and collaboration options, plus a new expense-reporting tool. Neat has made its bones as a desktop scanning solution, offering both compact and ADF-enabled scanners that work with the company’s Mac and PC applications for document management. The Neat mobile app extends that find-my-files experience for access on the go, with scans and folders synchronizing to the NeatCloud online service . You can quickly share folders or individual scans to collaborate with colleagues, or search the OCR / indexed text of your documents to find what you need quickly. The expense report feature is intriguing; it creates a summary PDF from a collection or folder of receipt scans, totaling up the expenditure and listing categories as it goes. It’s not going to supplant dedicated expense-reporting iOS tools like Concur , but for mobile freelancers who want a quick way to send expense overviews while simultaneously filing the receipts for safekeeping, it may get some traction. The NeatCloud platform also includes an optional human-powered verification step called NeatVerify , which will run the automatic OCR results from your receipt or business card scans (no documents) past the eyes of a real, live person for checking. You can get 30 credits for this service for US$4.99 a month, so it’s probably best to save it for key items. Speaking of credits, while the Neat application is a free download from the App Store, the required NeatCloud service works on a paid subscription basis. After a 30-day free trial, you will need either the $14.99 or $29.99 monthly NeatCloud plan (discounted if you sign up for a year) to use the app; both plans offer additional features like extra users, cross-service search and more. Compare and contrast the $45 annual cost of an Evernote premium subscription , and you get the sense that Neat is aiming at the more demanding side of the market.

MacStadium announces plans for Mac Pro hosting and colocation while Macminicolo also plans to be ready at launch
MacStadium announces plans for Mac Pro hosting and colocation Less than a week since being teased at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference, the Mac Pro is already finding its way into new and useful places. MacStadium, which currently utlizes the Mac mini for dedicated hosting and colocation, has announced plans to offer Mac Pro hosting later this year. MacStadium has already developed custom racks for the new Mac Pro (via Macworld / TUAW ), which features a brand-new design that is much smaller than the previous model, and can store 270 Mac Pros in each Mac Pro POD. That’s fifteen rows, nine columns, and two Mac Pros per slot. Prior to its redesign, the Mac Pro would have populated rooms rather than racks with the same configuration. With nearly 300 Mac Pros taking up just 12 square feet of floor space, each Mac Pro POD will surely produce a small Florida county worth of heat! MacStadium’s Mac Pro POD With help from the Mac Pros thermal core center, MacStadium says it has developed a system to adequetly cool each Mac Pro POD: The MacStadium POD is a pressurized environment allowing the Mac Pro servers to effortlessly draw in conditioned air from the central chamber, and expel it thru its unified thermal core. Each server is provided redundant power, cooling, and a full Gigabit of Internet connectivity, all backed by live 24×7 support ensuring 100% uptime for even the most advanced implementations. Macminicolo isn’t missing out on the action. Soon after the Mac Pro was announced, Macminimolo issued this teaser via Twitter: MacProColo.net ? Of course. Stay tuned.— Macminicolo (@macminicolo) June 10, 2013 Macminicolo announced today plans for Xcode Server that includes an iPad and an iPod touch as part of a new server package. ”Our racks are all ready and can start hosting the day the Pros are released,” the company tells us. At WWDC last week , Apple announced two things that really caught our attention at Macminicolo. Xcode Server will be included in Server.app. This is huge. A number of customers here already use their minis as CI servers. (Here’s a post on how the developers of Day One uses their CI server .) Jenkins is great, but Xcode Server is drop dead simple. We’ve been testing it here. When It’s publicly available, we’ll have a specific package that includes a server, an iPad and an iPod touch. Everything you need to develop and collaborate your code. The Mac Pro is another great release. It’s smaller size, and crafted design, will make it great for a data center. Needless to say, it’s certainly an exciting time for hosting and colocation with the announcement of the all-new Mac Pro. Continue reading

Team behind iPad App of the Year 2012 gets $15m backing for ‘Office suite of the future’
FiftyThree, the software development team behind Paper , the highest-grossing app in the iTunes store , has raised $15 million in investment funding to create what it thinks of as the Office suite of a more creative future, reports The Verge . “Our goal is to build essentially a suite of mobile tools for creativity,” says FiftyThree founder and Microsoft vet Georg Petschnigg, which means for all intents and purposes, FiftyThree has just begun. Well, Microsoft just debuted Office for iPhone, but an app that defined productivity on desktops — ported to mobile — doesn’t seem to be what Petschnigg has in mind. “It’s about imagining the right solution,” he says, “and that takes time.” … Paper, awarded the title of App of the Year in 2012, works on the freemium model: the app is free, and you then buy paintbrushes for $2 each. It has seen 8 million downloads, 1.5m of them in the first two weeks. The app was updated last month with new features, including Made with Paper , a social feed of other people’s work created with the app to provide inspiration. FiftyThree isn’t giving much away when it comes to its future plans. Petschnigg has quietly amassed an all-star team of hardware designers for an undisclosed project. The company was co-founded by John Ikeda, who designed every Xbox 360 accessory from the controller to the Kinect, and has hired Jim Koo, ex-director of mechanical engineering at Sonos, and Audrey Louchart, who designed Microsoft’s award-winning Arc Mouse. Given its track-record and the caliber of its team, however, we’ll be watching with interest. Continue reading

Huawei Ascend P6 announced: 6.18mm thickness, 4.7-inch 720p display
We knew it was in the works given the sheer quantity of leaks but, with a small sigh of relief, Huawei’s Ascend P6 is now official. At the company’s London launch, the handset has been revealed with a 6.18mm-thick, all-metal body that weighs in at 120 grams — only 8 grams more than the iPhone 5, which, for the sake of context, has a thickness of 7.6mm. The 4.7-inch device comes with a 1,280 x 720 in-cell LCD display, 1.5GHz quad-core CPU and 2GB RAM. While users may be dismayed to read that the P6 has a small 8GB of storage, a microSD card slot will let you add up to 32GB more for your media perusal. The phone’s primary camera is an 8-megapixel, F/2.0 BSI lens with a 4cm macro, but the vain amongst you shouldn’t worry as there’s a 5-megapixel shooter up front. The build of Android 4.2.2 will be skinned with Huawei’s customary Emotion UI, while AV fans amongst you will be happy to see the handset boasting Dolby Digital Plus sound. A 2,000mAh battery and GSM/UMTS/HSPA+ radios round out the spec sheet, and the handset will be launching in China from June and western Europe from July, with 19 countries covered by the end of that month. A total of 100 nations will have the Ascend P6 by the end of the year, and an LTE version is due sometime in the fourth quarter. You’ll be able to pick it up in black, white or pink colors from places like EE, Three, Vodafone, O2, Orange and the Carphone Warehouse in the UK. Most Europeans will have to set aside €449 ($601) for the smartphone; we’re still waiting on pricing details for the UK and other countries. Filed under: Cellphones , Mobile Comments Continue reading
