Mike was in London, Elaine was at home, but we still managed to get an episode recorded. In this episode Elaine talks about Cro-Mag Rally and other iPhone games whilst Mike at last uses his iPhone for more than Monkey Ball. Elaine rants again, this time about iPlayer and we have some fantastic new software to give away – for FREE.
