Kindle

Amazon has dropped the word on the Kindle development kit today, which has been a pretty hot topic over the past several days.  This move was inevitable, given the success of the iPhone App Store.

With Apple’s apps on the front edge of the development, the big surprises that we saw in iPhone apps probably won’t be catching us as far off guard as before.  Will the iFart see another incarnation on the Kindle?

Developers get 70% of the net revenue (after delivery fees of $0.15/MB) from Kindle app sales, and 3 pricing options are in place: free, one-time purchase, monthly subscription.

Interested developers can sign up for notification on the Kindle Development Kit limited beta, which is set to start next month.  Here’s the signup page.

Helix Grip

If you’re serious about your iPhone and iPod Touch gaming, you might want to check out this new Helix grip from PosiMotion. This should help you out with those driving and flying games that use the accelerometer.

As you can see from the pics, you can mount your iPhone in a horizontal or vertical manner.

Helix Grip

The Helix will be on display at CES 2010.  It will set you back $19.99 and should be available in Spring 2010. You can pre-order one from PosiMotion already.
