So I realised this morning that 3 of the downloads were not working! I’ve fixed these so now they work again!
I’ve been doing a little more work on this over the last week and it’s nearly ready for release. This will hopefully be out within a week or two depending on any last minute changes and time for marketplace certification.
Additions in v1.2 are
The release version has now had 197 downloads to date and not one review! If anyone who has downloaded this is reading this and finds the app useful, please take the time to fill out a review.
As previously posted, I’ve now replaced my ageing NSLU2 with a raspberry pi.
Having finally set it all up, and now having a case from ModMyPi, it’s nearly complete. I’ll be doing a write up of all the set up, much like I did for my NSLU2 Debian installation. The Pi is already proving a much more powerful beast – heck it’s got much more than 29MB worth of memory!
So much so, that currently my Pi is running:
On the hardware side – I’ve got the following plugged in:
In the meantime, I think I might go and tidy up all those wires
I’ve been working on an update to my windows phone app – infinite prime control, that allows control of the infinite prime alarm via formatted SMS messages
I’m currently adding in part and perimeter arming and am open to suggestions as to what else might be useful to people.
I’m also contemplating an android, iPhone and blackberry implementation (in that order!)
Its had around 72 downloads from the windows phone marketplace in just over a month – which isn’t too bad considering that it is only useful if you do indeed have an infinite prime alarm!
It’s surprising quite how many downloads my wii homebrew apps get.
From this site alone:
See the downloads page if you want the most up-to-date figures.
These numbers pale in significance however, compared to the amount of downloads from the wii homebrew browser where most people seem to download homebrew for the wii. These are as follows:
If only I got a pound or a dollar for every download
Still – at least I know I’ve given something significant back to the wii homebrew community
After a long absence, I’ve finally updated Bootmii config editor again!
This update is available from the following link, or using the auto update functionality present within BootMii Configuration Editor v2.4 onwards. To update from v2.4 onwards, simply start the editor from the homebrew channel and the new version will be detected and downloaded should you choose to update.

It’s with a tear in my eye that I finally retire my long serving NSLU2 running debian.
It’s been a good servant as both a network gateway (SSH/Certificates) and a source control server, plus my media streamer, however the time has come to replace this with a raspberry pi
My dear SLUG, you’ve been great… now onto some pi
My first windows phone app is now available in the windows phone marketplace.
The app is called ‘Infinite Prime Control’ and its purpose is to construct the correct format text messages in order to control the infinite prime burglar alarm control panel.
The infinite prime panel from electronics line is an excellent wireless alarm system that when paired with the GSM module, allows control via SMS messaging.
The app currently provides the ability to:
Due to security restrictions in WP7, it is not possible to transmit or receive/process text messages in the background, so it constructs the relevant format text message and then presents this to the user to send.
Screen shots follow.
As a user of windows phone 7, I’m pretty excited at the fact that the Mango release is due within the next two weeks.
The user interface of windows phone 7 is by far and above the best experience of all mobile devices I’ve used, which include Symbian, Blackberry, Android and iPhone!
Windows Phone 7 is so extremely slick and intuitive, and needs to be seen/used and lived with before anyone passes judgement/fan boy ism comments. There’s just so many nice things about it, and the mango release looks set to address some of the more irritating issues, whilst adding a whole host of additional features!
As such – I’m also pleased to see Windows 8 going in this direction, along with the XBox360 Dashboard.
It looks like Microsoft is onto a winner here, be interesting to see the state of the mobile/OS/games console market in a couple of years time!
