    The 1.1.4 update is to be included in the 2.0 update. So it should be about €8.

    App store is up, for what it's worth.

    Some really handy looking apps...

    There's one that pulls up a list of movies showing in nearby cinemas (using GPS!) and shows cinema times, IMDB ratings and other information. Very handy! Sadly, only US only though.

    There's also a rake of dictionaries, though sadly no Japanese-English one yet. Electronic dictionaries, very popular in Japan, can run to the hundred of euros, so I'll be keenly awaiting the addition of one to the store.

    Anyone else see anything interesting?

    It's been available since yesterday afternoon in reality, got the 2.0 update about 3.30 yesterday. SuperMonkey Ball is the best game I have found, along with Aqua Forest.

    There are some really good golf scoring apps available for anyone interested in the sport.

    The remote for Apple TV looks like a great app too.

    Can I ask how you got Super Monkey Ball?

    There are NO games on the Irish Apps Store at the moment. None.

    Do you have a US credit card or something?

    Not yet but probably soon. I heard the controls on SMB are bad but the graphics are very good. They look like DS quality graphics.

    Sloooooooooow. Most of the ones I've d/l'd are so sluggish! Ms Pac Man and Twittleator are pretty good though. My co worker said the mobile flickr app is not great at all. What have other's d/l'd? I'd love a CityTransit for Boston like the one they have for New York.

    In Dublin, we'd settle for a transit system, never mind an app for it... :rolleyes:

    Meh. They should have released the upgrade yesterday when they opened up the App store.

    Is this happening for anyone who doesn't have a jailbroken iPod Touch?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,534 ✭✭✭Dman001


    2.0 is now available for the Touch.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,534 ✭✭✭Dman001


    I pressed "Check for Updates" and it said 2.0 is available and it said I have to download iTunes 7.7, which is odd because I thought I downloaded 7.7 yesterday.

    I click it and it says 2.0 is now available. Click Learn More and looks like it is bringing me to the iTunes store but I end back at my Ipod Touch Summary page


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,534 ✭✭✭Dman001


    Odd. I'm downloading 7.7 now and I will see what happens for me.

    Okay, so its finally available now.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,285 ✭✭✭BanzaiBk


    Box Office = Awesome. iTunes Remote and Pandora are also really well done and free. Downloaded Yelp just to have it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,534 ✭✭✭Dman001


    There are a few Radio Apps, such as Virgin Radio, which look cool and they're free.

    Anyone know where there's no games available on the Irish App store?

    Seems a bit strange, and a little bit annoying.

    No idea, but it really sucks, apparently Brazil and China are having the same problem.

    is it really worth e8 for the iPod Touch? Bit of a rip off especially when you have to pay for apps on top of that. me think I'll keep my iTouch jailbroken for a while yet.
