Any recommendations for a good replacement?

Very dapper indeed, though short on the Penny Farthings…

Looking forward to trying out the iPod Touch app.

How it works is a bit of a mystery (though I have a theory or two) – it would be nice if Apple would actually publish a user guide for new features once in a while. At least for now it is an improvement over the 1.1.4 implementation.

Amazingly getting away with just minor injuries he was able to remount and finish the stage.
