A new voice-recognition search tool for the iPhone has problems understanding British accents, leading to some bizarre answers to spoken queries, reports say.

The free application, which allows iPhone owners to use the Google search engine with their voice, mistook the word iPhone variously for sex, Einstein and kitchen sink, said London’s Daily Telegraph.

mind Wave uses binaural tones to induce relaxation, increase concentration or aid sleep.Slip on some headphones, fire up mind Wave and listen your way to a different mood or state of relaxation. This app is actually very cool, and works very well… The ‘timer’ is a great function, so as not to waste your iPhone’s battery long after you’ve finished counting sheep.

Enjoy your relaxation time, get this app from the iTunes App Store.

Try this out… it’s not as good as in the promo video from Google, but then I am in an office with a few people around, but seriously, it’s got it wrong 8 times. I’m already getting annoyed with this app. Maybe I’m not american enough, seeing as the app has a disclaimer that says ‘works best with a Northern American English Accent’…!!!

It’s clever I suppose, maybe you’ll have more luck than me using this app.

The new Google Mobile App, is available TODAY on the iTunes App Store.

iPhone Dev Team have posted on their blog saying that 2.2 iPhone software MAY stop any future jailbreak UNLOCKS… the key word here is MAY stop it… They are not sure, but for them to even mention it, it must be a concern, so our suggestion is to wait for a few days after the update is released and see what the iPhone Dev Team say… Obviously, we’ll keep you all posted on the best course of action too… So check back on the 21st!

iPhone Dev Team’s blog post:

We’ve made some decent progress with the iPhone 3G, nothing worthy of a party as yet but we are moving along nicely, we’ll keep you updated on this.

Now for something a bit more serious, we’ve explained about Apple’s updates in the past and we’ve warned against the immediate installation of these updates without knowing what they do to your device.

This is indeed true of the iPhone 3G’s upcoming 2.2 release. Installing ‘2.2’ on the iPhone 3G could affect your chances of any software unlock in the near future (should one be found and released), so when you see an update in iTunes await our instructions first!

Please don’t blindly install the update and then complain about it later ;-)

First Look: Blackbeard’s Assault

Blackbeard’s Assault iPhone Preview from Jim Warhurst on Vimeo.

An upcoming game has piqued our interest. We could call it a Puzzloop clone, but its really quite different, and actually a lot more polished. Use your multiple cannons to match 3 balls or more at a time (in a Puzzloop style) however, you’ve got two cannons and it works quite well. We love the surround graphics, it’s really well designed, and much more reminiscent of a video game from a big console. It feels like a full game, and that, we feel is something lacking at the moment on the iPhone.

Blackbeard’s Assault only costs $2.99 and is available now
