Plox Lite

If you have ever played tower defence, this is a familiar game, but on a phone it seemed to be doubly exciting. After Trap, this is another game that I was completely addicted to for a while.
Worth a try...

Music Lite

This is not a multi-touch application, but does its job well for a single touch app. Its a nice musical keyboard with an option for a piano and a keyboard (with the full extended version avaiable for a payment).
Clearly worth it, if you are into this sort of thing!

Trap!

Heres a game I was completely addicted to. Trap is the name and what you are supposed to do is trap those floating balls using lines that go end to end. If any ball meets any unfinished line, then you lose a life. There are various bonuses, special balls and stuff to keep you occupied for a long long time. It does not seem so great when you start, but as you play, like any good game, it is supremely addictive.

Zebra paint!

A stunningly simple painting application - really loved by kids. Choose the colour with your finger, touch the relevant spot on the screen - thats it. Choose from a range of pre loaded pictures and a whole range of colours on the palette. Keeps kids busy for a while...

OS 3.0 released

This is not the blog to read about OS 3.0. There are clearly, better places on the web like Engadget. But do read the link to see the "potential" that can be unleashed with this device. In that we at hndhld also concur that the potentilal of this device - or potential of wireless handheld devices has just about been tapped.

Fast company has an article that points to the direction that many of us have been. The iPhone is almost there as a gaming platform competing with Sony and Nintendo and perhaps a certain Xbox as well? Hmm...

Image Search

The new google image search is superb! It detects (atleast thats how it appeared to me) that you are connecting from a mobile device and tailors the results appropriately!

With the new Image Search results, you can easily scan up to 20 images on a single results page and get the details for images that interest you. From the details page, you can view a larger thumbnail, visit the web page containing the image, or view the image by itself in full size. The new results page also supports "search-by-style" filters, which allow you to restrict your search results to people's faces, clip art, line drawings, or photo content. [Google Mobile blog]
