Flick Fishing provides great action and none of the slime

I would enjoy fishing so much more if I didn't have to put something icky on the hook or actually touch a fish if I landed one.



Flick Fishing will save you from all that unpleasantness. You can even play the game outside if you want.



Flick Fishing offers six areas to fish, from a peaceful pond to a wave-lashed deep sea boat. At your location, you choose among four different lures or baits and then cast away.



Casting is where Flick Fishing really shines. Flick your wrist to cast and your line flies out to sea. A reel then appears on screen that you turn clockwise with your finger to bring your line in.



When a fish bites, jerk your iPhone back to set the hook. Once you begin reeling in fish, you can raise and lower your phone to adjust the fishing pole, but you can't pull it back to fight the fish. An onscreen meter tells you how much your fish is fighting back or tiring.






Flick Fishing's downfall is its horrible load time. When I first opened it, nothing happening for 10 seconds. Then there was another 15 seconds where it showed a loading bar before getting to the main screen. That's an eternity for a twitchy gamer.



Flick Fishing offers good graphics once you get past the load time and some very good sound effects to heighten the experience. When a pond isn't handy or you don't want to get your hands dirty, Flick Fishing fits the bill.

Apple sues HTC for iPhone patent infringement



WASHINGTON (AFP) - – Apple announced Tuesday that it had filed a lawsuit against HTC, maker of the Nexus One smartphone from Google, accusing the Taiwan company of infringing on 20 iPhone patents.

"We can sit by and watch competitors steal our patented inventions, or we can do something about it," Apple chief executive Steve Jobs said in a statement.

"We've decided to do something about it. We think competition is healthy, but competitors should create their own original technology, not steal ours," Jobs said.

Apple accused HTC of infringing on 20 Apple patents related to the "user interface, underlying architecture and hardware" of the iPhone.

The company, based in Cupertino, California, said the lawsuit was filed in a US District Court in the state of Delaware and with the US International Trade Commission.

Apple has sold more than 40 million iPhones since introducing the smartphone in 2007.

HTC makes handsets for a number of leading companies and is the manufacturer of the Nexus One unveiled by Apple rival Google in January.

Apple is currently being sued by Nokia for patent infringement and has countersued the Finnish mobile phone giant.

World's cheapest, ugliest iPhone case



Marketing and PR folks take note. In one of the more brilliant publicity stunts in recent memory, iPhone accessory maker Case-mate is going downscale. Really downscale. And green, too.

It's created a 99-cent cardboard "recession" case along with free "Sharpie Script" personalization (yes, some dude or dudette will inscribe your case by hand). And these babies can be bought in bulk: Case-mate is offering 10 for $7.99.

I'm impressed. This is something you'd expect to see from the Onion News Network, not from a real tech company. And while the recession has hopefully ended, plenty of people are still hurting, even a couple of iPhone owners.

Here's the FAQ on the case, in case you want to buy one:

Q) Is it waterproof? A) No, so don't put it in the dishwasher.

Q) Is this case flammable? A) If you light it on fire it is.

Q) Does it come assembled? A) No, see our animated gif for a step-by-step demo!

Q) What device does this case support? A) iPhone 1G, 3G, and 3GS.

Q) How does this case stay together? A) It has locking tabs at the bottom and top of the case, as well as an adhesive strip to keep the case held together.

Q) Can I use this case to microwave my frozen pizzas? A) I don't see why not, although we can't ensure quality taste.

Q) Will this case make me awesome? A) I think that goes without saying.

Q) Is there a warranty? A) No, it is cardboard, after all.

Q) Can I get a paper cut on my ear while using this case? A) My first guess would be no, but anything is possible, we don't promote unsafe use of the recession case.

Q) How long will the case be sold? A) As long as it needs to be to get us out of this recession! Or while supplies last.

Q) Does it come with a screen protector? A) No, we are in a recession!

Q) How long will the product last? A) Forever as long as you don't destroy it!

Q) Is this case made from recycled cardboard? A) 100 percent of only the best for you!

Q) Will the product scratch my device? A) No! its cardboard not brick!

Q) Is the CM logo impressed on the case? A) This is known as the "people's case."

Q) Will this product be sold at Case-mate retail locations? A) Nope! The recession case is sold exclusively here at case-mate.com!
