Anyone looking for SCUBA apps? - G1 Apps and Games

I wrote my first Android app and it's on the market now: Gas Mixer http://code.google.com/p/gasmixer/
It costs $3 but that's just a way to recoup my time and expenses. The source is available on my project site.
I intend to write more diving apps, and I'm also a student pilot so I'm starting to think about making some aviation apps too.

Mortgage Payment Calculator needed for Pocket PC

I'm a loan officer, looking for a basic Mortgage Payment Calculator for my Tilt. I saw several software programs available after doing a google browse. Just wanted to get some input from other pocket pc users. I don't need anything fancy just some thing basic to calculate Rate/Term & Interest Only payments while away from my office. I don't mind paying for the software but of course would prefer a trial version first.
Any suggestions?
I know I'm not the only mortgage guy with a Kaiser/Tilt that's still afloat in this ugly market ; )
Its you're lucky day..

Hey Roadmenace...
I'm a loan officer cum realtor and have been using the best one that was ever created for pocket pc. How I know this is because I've tried pretty much each and every title thats available on handango/pocketgear.com over the past 4 or so years.. yup! that means from the days of WM2003. And its pretty ironic that having tried some costing as much as $50, the best one was and is totally free.
It was written by one Greg Fischer from Australia, a mortgage rep himself based down under. Its called mortgage calc and I believe it had over a million or so downloads to its name on the above sites back in the days.
However, the person stopped updating it beyond its 3.4 build for over a year and that too for just WM2003se. After a hiatus of over a year and my persistent googling I found his amateur site again and he had actually re-written the whole thing for WM5/6 and its now version 3.5
Sorry for the lesson in history.. I had to cuz if you'd known about it, the software was literally a "living legend" in its category.
Some of the fancy calculators built in it are no longer there for the WM5/6 versions but its still hands down the best you're gonna find hands down.
Here's the link to the website:
http://members.optusnet.com.au/~gm_fisher/Main.htm
and I'm attaching the .cab as well.
A great free option is Microsoft Excel. You can set it up to calculate any of the variables that you mention - rate, # of payments, necessary downpayment, etc. You can also use it for irregular mortgage terms as well. If you are not proficient in Excel, you can download templates directly from Microsoft or from www.vertex42.com (or just do a google search).
This is a great, free option (I think that Excel is the best software ever created, so I am a little bias) IMHO.
Excel is VERY useful. I don't know if it's the best though... I pick notepad.
I am wondering with the difference between a mortgage
Hi, I am wondering with the difference between a mortgage APR and Interest Rate? My mortgage interest rate is 6.875% and the APR is 7.504% does the APR of 7.504% sound right if the interest rate is 6.875%? My mom said that the 2 numbers should be closer together than that. Also, my mortgage banker never mentioned an APR, and since we are 1st time home buyer's, we were unaware of it. We only knew about the Interest rate. Can you please help me?

I Donated?

It's the latest paid app for $.99.
Anybody know where this app is donating to? Is it a fake charity?
Looked like some suckers actually fell for it.
I'm assuming that it's just some random guy who's in college who needs money and is saying that it's donating to help children in college (in other words, himself).
Also, just because there are comments doesn't mean that people bought it. You're forgetting that Google allows users to refund their apps within 24 hours. This is especially handy when you want to try out an expensive app.
He/She states in the app description that you are donating to android developers (i.e. him/her)

What Makes Google So Successful?

The word Google has become synonymous with online search as it refers to the world’s best search engine, and it has developed a platform for huge free web-based applications that now we use every day to perform tasks, or simply for entertainment. The company now is a multinational corporation with a huge budget and a pre-determined strategy to grow bigger. But how does Google does it?
Google does it simply with its interest in providing what everyone needs and the way they want it to be. Unlike the other corporates that sells good or sometimes excellent products for a high price, Google’s answer to this is simply, a high quality “product as a service” and the best part it’s for free. However, the company also does sell online advertisement spaces. The ads are served also in their propriety services like Gmail and Docs etc.
Presenting an operating system for the small gadgets and making it free is a wise way to approach the market, and to get the approval of the experts the company made it based on Linux, the developers’ favorite. The project was first at the hands of a small company, but Google acquired it and financed the project so it can become a reality in order to expand in the telecommunication industry. The smart thing was including all of its services alongside new ones into the software, this making it getting closer to its users and getting the feedback with not much of an effort.
Google has developed some of its key services out from university labs. At first they would be tested for a long time internally, and then when it’s near perfection it’s released to the world like Gmail. The service was in beta phase for five years before it became stable. It’s is a pressure-free developing style, a style that divers it from others. While other companies have deadlines and a releasing schedule, Google doesn’t, simply because there is no one to report to. Its external contracts are different; Google doesn’t create a product for another corporate. Having so will enforce the company to work in a narrow area and with predetermined way. On the contrary it simply creates and presents the product for the other companies to work with.
Its employees are encouraged to work on project that interests them directly. This corporate culture cannot be simply copied. If it was, we would see someone doing it. It’s also what divers it from other companies and it’s what defines it now. Making the workspace fun and interesting is to maintain the current staff and attract new “brains”, the ones who might have an idea of a project that can turn out to be the next big thing.
Google maintains its services up and running with its dependency on ads; this was at first and might still be at a certain degree. But its market share and its focus on many fields might define the future of the corporate. Sole dependency on ads online is definitely not a good strategy and Google has figured that out already, with its expanding plans to other areas, first, ten years ago when it acquired Blogger the famous blogging platform. After that YouTube, with its 4 Billion videos streamed daily, alongside it’s cloud music service that has shown great threat to competitors with its simplicity. And lately it’s 12.5 Billion bid on Motorola Mobility.
It’s clear that Google continues to grow with its unique way of managing its business. It’s is what will define the corporate future, alongside our lifestyle that has been influenced and still does. We used to read printed books; we now read them on small devices to save the huge space the books occupy. There are many examples of how Google has enhanced the way we perform our tasks and activities and made them easy for us, and this is the reason why Google is so succeful.

NOTHING is free. I am as guilty as most of the people for taking their 'free' candy, but it will someday bite us on the ass.
Not sure when, but it will happen. And it won't be pretty!
And believe me they are not doing it to be good corporate citizens.

It will cost me more than 25 cents in electricity just deleting all of the spam generated from signing up to worthless sites. And 5 cents for showing a referral 1000 times? Lol. I think bums on skid row wouldn't waste their time on that!
BTW, Nice segue into a plug for your site.
