CBS releases "Star Trek PADD" application
The application provides access to the StarTrek.com database using an authentic LCARS interface.
I’ve been wanting something like this ever since the iPad was introduced.
CBS needs to make more Star Trek themed applications for iOS, especially more games. There are tons of old, glorious games that could be ported to the iPad; “Starfleet Academy” comes to mind.
Imagine flying the old Enterprise into battle again a few D7 cruisers, using the iPads motion controls.
Thanks to Peter Cohen at The Loop for the link.
reminiscent of a PADD
The iPhone 4 feels even less like a phone to me than the iPhone 3GS. The latter was already an impressive design, but the iPhone 4’s ‘density’ and finish are of a different class. The first thing that came to my mind when I held it, was that this is what I imagined the smaller PADDs from Star Trek to feel and behave like.
