Wow! It’s been a busy week over here! We just received word that eWallet for Mac is now listed at Apple’s official Mac OS software site. You can check it out here. You can download the trial version from Apple, but you still make the final purchase through the Ilium Software Online Store.
That’s it for this week…check back Monday as we have yet another cool thing coming up next week!
We just released ListPro for iPhone last week. Not only has the response from customers been incredible, but this morning the New York Times mentioned ListPro for iPhone and Windows PC in an article from their Personal Tech section. The article said:
ListPro, a desktop software application that help users manage lists of all kinds, is now available as a free iPhone app. With it, you may create and manage lists, or choose from existing templates. For $20, you can download the desktop version (for Windows only) and sync your lists.
From a business perspective, even a quick mention like this is fantastic (Thanks, Bob Tedeschi!) From a personal perspective, however, seeing something you worked so hard to create get a mention in the New York Times is just incredibly cool!
You can read the entire article, including some great advice about managing business cards using your mobile device, at the New York Times website.
We just released an update to eWallet that improves support for customers using BlackBerry OS 6.0 devices and for customers who are using Desktop Manager 6.0. If you’ve run into problems using eWallet 7 with either of these RIM updates, the newly released versions should clear things up for you.
If you install the update, please install the updates for both Windows PC and BlackBerry.
Just download the latest versions from our site. Typically, eWallet will pick up your registration codes from previous installations, but if for any reason it doesn’t, the eWallet 7 codes you received with your purchase will unlock the software. If you no longer have your codes, you can request them here.
As many of you scurvy dogs may know, I’m a huge fan of Talk Like a Pirate Day. If ever there was a holiday this world desperately needed, it was this one. Officially, Talk Like a Pirate Day is September 19th, but in preparation for the holiday and to celebrate the release of ListPro for iPhone, I’ve posted two pirate-themed lists on the List Exchange.
The first is the official ListPro Talk Like a Pirate Day list! With the blessings of the good folks in charge of Talk Like a Pirate Day, I’ve created a set of lists that include the origins of Talk Like a Pirate Day, a Pirate Dictionary, and “His and Hers” Pirate Pick-Up Lines! I can’t thank the folks over at Talk Like a Pirate Day enough for their support on this. Make sure to visit the official site to learn more about this awesome holiday!
The second is another Pirate Dictionary, this one compliments of the folks at the publishing company, Tide-Mark Press. It’s a great dictionary of pirate words and terms! Again, we really appreciate their support and encourage everyone to check out their site!
Windows PC and Windows Mobile users can download these special Talk Like A Pirate Day lists here (TalkLikeAPirateDay) and here (TideMarkPirateDictionary).
iPhone ListPro users can download the lists by tapping the List Exchange button at the Home View of ListPro on their device.
I’m extremely excited to announce that we just released ListPro for iPhone and iPod touch. It’s been a long time coming, but we’re very happy with the result and we think you will be too. Not only does it include many of the great features that have made ListPro so popular on other platforms, but the new iPhone version is free.
As you probably know, ListPro isn’t like other list-makers – ListPro is a complete list-making tool kit. It doesn’t limit you to one or two simple list types. With ListPro we give you the tools you need to contruct the perfect list for your needs. From a project tracking list to a mico-database for your book collection, you can do it all with ListPro.
At the same time, we understand that there are times when all you need is that simple list – and you need it now. To solve that problem, we’ve introduced List Protals. List Portals let you create some of the most commonly used list types, quickly, easily, and with a feature set specially geared toward those types of lists.
And of course, as we mentioned, ListPro for iPhone is free! All the power of ListPro at a price you, quite literally, can’t beat. This was made possible by Apple’s iAds. We know there is a right way and a wrong way to do ad supported software, but we think we did it the right way with ListPro. The only place you see the ad is on the home screen, and it doesn’t use up space needed for other things. No ads covering your list items or getting in the way when you’re editing. We think it’s a great way to handle ads, and we hope you’ll agree.
Finally, ListPro for iPhone and iPod touch offers complete, item-level synchronization with ListPro for Windows PC. It’s a great way to have your lists at your fingertips all the time.
ListPro for iPhone and iPod touch is available at the iTunes App Store for free and will run on all iOS 4 devices. ListPro for Windows PC is available from our online store for $19.95, but if you already own ListPro 5.0 you can download ListPro 5.1 (needed to sync with iPhone) for free. If you own an older version of ListPro (for any platform) you can upgrade to 5.1 here for just $10.00.
We hope you love ListPro as much as we do. We use it for everything here, and we’re extremely excited to see it hit the App Store. And if you have ideas, questions, or requests, just let us know! We have a list of features we hope to add in the future and would love to hear your thoughts!
