The Chronicles of Riddick Last

The Chronicles of Riddick

Last fall I was about to start the submit process for an N900 app a phone that was back then over half a year old, and the Ovi docs did not mention the N900 with a single word. Contrast this to Apple s store where the site works beautifully and reviews are usually 1-2 weeks for totally new apps and a few days for updates. The docs are plentiful with good examples, and it s very easy to get started. I want to do apps for Nokia s Qt platforms too well, not Symbian, but right now it s such a mess. Well, we ll keep you posted on more such issues. I believe they ll fix the worst parts here in a month or so. Another small company next door develops an The Chronicles of Riddick for many platforms and Symbian/N900 too, and they told horror stories of grossly incompetent reviewers. The reviewers really had no idea what they did and didn t know the N900 platform at all. The story was a bit hilarious in all its sadness For which countries according to selected languages, here is official list: Note that only English can be distributed worldwide. I agree that it was well hidden. Email required Your email address will not be published. Notify me of follow-up comments via email. Notify me of new The Chronicles of Riddick via email.

For anyone who hasnt been following the situation: the PSN was hacked last month, compromising all 77 million members personal information. The prolonged PSN downtime was a result of hackers, and consequently Sony announced that everyones PSN screen name, real name, address, email, birth date, and password had been compromised. The users profile data and purchase history/billing address may also have been compromised. Whether credit card numbers had been stolen was never definitively stated, though Sony advised PSN members to take that non-confirmation under consideration. A site/system being hacked is nothing new, and most members did not fault Sony for getting hacked, it was the way they handled their PR that caused a problem. As users, gamers, customers, and people whose personal information had just been stolen, Sony offered up very few details as to what was going on a situation made worse by the fact that certain games DRM require a constant connection to the PSN in order to be played even offline, not to mention that the very active Call of Duty online multiplayer community was left stranded with no idea how long it would take for the network to come back up. This angered many PSN members, echoing a sentiment of distrust throughout the hallowed series of tubes that supports forums, message boards, and article commenting. Days passed with little to no useful information, and then weeks, and when it came out that credit card numbers may have been at risk the community went nuts having not known sooner. Sonys explanation was that they had only learned about it very recently before their announcement and wanted to confirm that it was an issue before worrying people.
