Founded in 2002 as Pocket Watch Software by Charles W. Teel, our company launched what has continued to be our lead product, ActivePrint. Teel developed the idea of ActivePrint as a college student after getting his first Pocket PC. In class, he would write pages and pages of notes on his Pocket PC but would have to manually copy those files to his desktop computer, and then print them one at a time. Frustrated, he looked for a software alternative to make this process simpler. However, the closest thing he could find would require another $400 of hardware and software, and even then it wouldn’t fully automate the process. So Teel set out to develop ActivePrint, the first and only mobile printing application that gives users the ability to print right out of the box at an affordable price (even for college students). Pocket Watch Software continued to develop the ActivePrint technology to make it more effective. After reorganizing Pocket Watch Software to Pocket Watch LLC, we continue the legacy of making technology work for our customers. Copyright (C) 2002-2011 Pocket Watch Software. All Rights Reserved.

Odessa, Ukraine – Nektony today gladly announces the release of Nektony Disk Inspector, the company’s first product for active Mac users. Disk Inspector is a fast, intuitive and efficient disk space analysis and organization tool with a beautiful and eye-catching interface that will be especially appreciated by demanding Mac users. The program scans the hard drive (or any other supported drive) and generates a colorful chart (sunburst diagram) representing the file system. This visual representation helps identify the largest files and take further steps for optimizing the content of the drive and freeing up disk space.

Statistically, an average Mac user is a lot more likely to regularly work with rich multimedia content, such as HD video, high-quality audio and high-resolution photos, than his or her PC counterpart. At the same time, working with high-quality content requires lots of hard drive space and proper organization – and this is exactly what Nektony Disk Inspector aims to do.

Nektony Disk Inspector seamlessly integrates with familiar system tools, so the user can always preview a file using QuickLook and get detailed information about it with one or two clicks. One of the greatest advantages of this software is that the user can start managing the files shown on the chart immediately after they appear on the screen and not wait until the end of the scanning and analysis process. The speedy core of the program makes full disk analysis a matter of just a few minutes.

At the moment, the program supports HDD volumes, CD and DVD discs, removable USB drives and even mounted DMG’s. It is an efficient diagnostics solution that helps identify the bulkiest files on the hard driver and move them, if necessary, along with rarely used files. Another option would be to create a backup copy of these “space eaters”. Nektony Disk Inspector will be a perfect choice for owners of large and very large photo, video and music collections, allowing you to keep your drives free of unused files.

Pricing and Availability:
Nektony Disk Inspector is available in the Mac App Store for as low as $8.99. The program requires Mac OS X 10.6 or later to operate.

Sydney, Australia – Kitegirlapps are offering their latest job tracker software, Actor! 1.0 for iOS. This time for freelance working actors. It’s already made the Top 100 in the Productivity section of Ecuador and Madagascar.

The Life of an Actor:
The career of an actor can be a roller coaster, feast or famine; and work can come from a multitude of sources. The typical actor will have at least one agent they are listed with. They may also be listed with a promotional staff recruitment company, various theatre companies – both amateur and professional – and have their own shows or films on the go with friends and colleagues.

Being creative minds, priority is on creating new projects, expressing themselves, perfecting their craft and marketing or promoting to attract more work. Consequently, one of the last things on the priority list is paperwork which most actors hate with a vengeance. It’s the least creative job on their plate and so they often neglect it or leave it in the hands of others. This can leave them vulnerable to having payments missed which can keep the everlasting reputation of the “starving artist” well and alive.

The Problem Solved:
By using Actor! (with the exclamation mark) on their iPhone, the actor can quickly store a list of people they get work from regularly and any related expenses in the Referrers section. For example, their acting agency along with commission percentage and any tax they withhold. Then as they complete each job, they can store the jobs in the Jobs Section and attach one of these Referrers to it if necessary. Each job can be customised to add and take away further amounts applied just to that job.

For example, a freelance job done with a group of buddies would be:
* Group earnings (Gross amount)
* Less costume hire and parking
* Divided by the number of people in the group.

Or, a television commercial done through the Acting Agent would be:
* Day rate for the film shoot plus the loading fee (Gross amount)
* Less agents commission
* Less tax withheld (these two lines copy automatically from the Referrers section)
* Plus a Travel fee to get to the shoot
* Less $500 advance the agent gave them

So the Actor can quickly see the Nett total of what they are now owed and can tick it off once it’s paid. Actor! is not as complicated as a full accounting system and is a great quick reference for the Actor who hates paperwork. They can keep on top of what jobs have yet to be paid, who owes them and how much they can expect in the hand to pay the rent.

Supported Languages:
* US English, Russian and Spanish

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad
* Requires iOS 3.0 or later
* 2.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Actor! 1.0 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Productivity category. There’s a free version called “Actor! Lite” you can try before you buy to calculate the Nett total of a single job.

Westchester, New York – Zephyr Games today is pleased to introduce Lumi’s Book of Eyes 1.0 for iOS, the ebook version of the best-selling paperback for kids 3-12, which also includes the I Spy an Eye mini-game. Originally written by ophthalmologist Dr. Robert Abel Jr., the book provides a fascinating introduction to the eyes of different animals as well as humans. The ebook is aimed at an international audience and features animals from around the world as it discusses the importance of good eye health and the value of eyeglasses. The 16-page interactive storybook can be read to a child, or by the character Lumi, a clever young man from Turkey who acts as our guide, who can read the book aloud (with or without the text displayed).

The ebook launches in landscape mode, and its vector graphics scale automatically to Retina, iPhone, or older iPod displays. The animated cartoon graphics consist of colored shapes with relatively thick stroke outlines. The pencil and watercolor drawings are simple but detailed, achieving a joyous realism through animated changes in shading. On selecting the ebook from the splash page, the enthusiastic cartoon voiceover announces, “Hello, my name is Lumi! And I’m here to show you the world of eyes!” The reader sees Lumi at work at his painting easel, out in the sunshine with a rainbow in the sky. The drawings are interactive, and touching some objects produces an animated reaction. Lumi gets his name from the French word “lumiere” that means “light,” as in the English word “illuminate.”

With a lilting Turkish accent, Lumi goes on to lead the reader on a tour of the differences between the eyes of many different animals, such as the: iguana, giraffe, eagle, owl, crocodile, tiger, hippopotamus, dragonfly, and frog. Lumi appears alongside a photo of each animal, and as he speaks he moves his head to look at the animal while addressing the reader. The reader learns how the unique ocular system of each creature is specially adapted to suit his or her special needs. In the book’s conclusion, Lumi points out that he, himself, wears corrective lenses, so that he can fully enjoy all there is to see. This serves as encouragement for young children to get eye exams and wear glasses, if necessary.

Feature Highlights:
* Actual, full color photos of the eyes of animals from around the world
* Amusing I Spy an Eye mini-game challenges kids to distinguish eyes from other objects
* The ebook contains full color graphics and animation for children of the highest quality
* Professional voiceover, music, and interactive game
* Turn audio narration on/off
* Set written text show/hide

Lumi was written and created by Robert Abel, Jr. M.D. In order to teach children about the importance of vision, Dr. Abel created the graphic character, Lumi. Lumi’s Book of Eyes informs children that it is OK to wear glasses and to have an eye exam by the age of five. Dr. Abel has traveled to India, Nepal, Mexico, Brazil, the Middle East, and Europe researching alternative medical practices. Working with an herbalist for 20 years, he has adopted many natural approaches for disease management. He has also contributed to the translation of ancient Ayurvedic eye therapies. Dr. Abel has written over 120 scientific articles and 20 chapters in medical books. He has also authored the The Eye Care Revolution, The DHA story, The Best Supplements For Your Health, The One Earth Herbal Sourcebook, Lethal Hindsight and the Lumi series. These books can be seen on Dr. Abel’s website www.eyeadvisory.com

According to the author, “Born in the mountains of Turkey, Lumi came from very artistic and creative parents. His father, a musician, philosopher, and poet, is also a shipbuilder and always wanted to build an Ark so if the world were to flood, he could save the animals and the people. Lumi’s mother is a chef and cooks food for all the travelers who come through from Europe, The Middle East, Asia, and Africa. When Lumi was a little boy, she would tell stories about animals from around the world. Lumi would take his summer vacations from school visiting the places his mother talked about so he could see the animals and how they lived. Since most kids didn’t have this opportunity, he wanted to write about them and share his knowledge. Lumi always believed in learning and sharing with others. Lumi recognizes the power of learning through reading. Lumi loves talking to the animals and kids.”

The ebook exhibits very high production values, and all elements blend seamlessly to produce an engaging, entertaining, and enlivening experience. The writer of the original book was Dr. Robert Abel Jr., MD, ophthalmologist, author, and lecturer who is devoted to bringing complementary thinking to eye health. He created Lumi out of his love for children and animals. Illustrations were created by Shanon Stevens, a distinguished graduate of the Wellington Institute of Technology in New Zealand. Project Development was by John Foster and Blackburst Media, Inc. Audio Design and Engineering was done by The Code International, Steve Horowitz and Robert Carpenter; audio recording at Dubway Studios NYC. Animation and GUI Design was contributed by Kohrtoons Studio, Inc., Rob Kohr, and Bobby Khounphaysane. Finally, the ebook was produced and published by Zephyr Games, Inc., Kenneth Johnson, CEO.

“Dr Abel is a remarkable man and a respected doctor,” stated Developer and Publisher Kenneth Johnson. “Lumi’s Book of Eyes captures the miracle of vision as it is found in different ecosystems around the world.”

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* iOS 3.0 or later (iOS 4.3 tested)
