Phonbook project that I and takuma joined got Silver Lion at Cannes Linons International, the world biggest ad award.

Its honor for us. :-)
Thanks a lot!

Now, our QuadCam, TiltShiftGen, ToyCam, OldCam, SepiaCam supports iPhone OS4 basic functionality ( not perfect retina display yet ).

ToyCam supports full rez exports.
QuadCam supprots 8 of 800×600 (formaly 400×300) multishot.
TiltShift Gen also supports full rez exports.

All Icon and Launch screen is re-made for iPhone4. Now we starts minor tuning for iPhone4 and iOS.
Enjoy :-)

Every time new iOS and iPhone cames, camera app sufferd from cross compatibility problem.
Because we can’t test camera device, until product is out. To matter worth many developer cant get new iPhone4 yet.

I think we should share our knowledge and experience to solve problem.
I made Google Groupe called, iPhone Camera App Union.

Please join, tweet, tell to your friend, and blog about it.

Here is a roadmap of my Camera apps for new iPhone4 and iOS4.
Because apple never provides device when it is actually out, I have to test first before I upload iPhone4 version.
I think every app works basically how ever it takes at least one-two weeks for fully supported.
Please wait a while.

TiltShift Generator:
Current version is new device, os compatible.
Next version supports full retina 2x display.

QuadCamera:
Current version is os compatible. Need test with actual iPhone4.
Ongoing review version supports iOS4 compatible icon design.
Two next version supports iPhone4 and will capture larger image size 800×600 each grid.

ToyCamera, OldCamera, SepiaCamera:
Current version is os compatible.
Next version supports, retina 2x icon and launch screen.

I just got $50, free trial ticket for Google AdWords.

I have notthing to do with it. So I descided to do a small experiment. ;-)

I made google ad that is linked to unicef’s Haiti Earthquake donation page. I don’t know google got approved it or not, just tried.

I think there are a lot of unused free AdWords ticket. If everyone use them for these kind of trial, it may make something better. Just try if you have any unused ticket.
