Although it’s where I used to test out most of the audio and music apps I came across, Cydia got corrupted and stopped launching a while back. While it gave me the testing ground and impetus to jailbreak my iPhone 3GS iOS 3.1.2 &#8211; my [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Auduino has been a great project to learn about Arduino hardware and software - and in the process find out a lot more about basic electronics and various components, prototyping, fabrication techniques and source suitable suppliers etc.

Even though the project is relatively simple I’ve done what I normally try to do &#8211; aside from [...]]]></description>
