Marware’s Game Grip for iPhone 3G and iPod touch gives you a classic gaming feel

Marware Game Grip

Regardless of whether you think the iPhone is or isn’t a better gaming machine than the PSP or the DS, there are times when you wish the device had been designed with more traditional gaming aesthetics in mind. Marware’s Game Grip for iPhone 3G and iPod touch gives you a classic gaming feel that’ll be especially familiar to users of Microsoft’s SideWinder motion-sensing PC gaming controller.

Be warned: Like Nintendo’s Wii Racing Wheel, this is little more than an elaborate holder for your iPhone, like the Wii Wheel, some players may find it indispensable for certain games. The Game Grip also has a clever built-in cord management system for charging, and a mini-stereo jack extender so that you can still use your earphones while playing. The comfortable silicon grip will also ensure your iPhone doesn’t slip out of your greasy palms. The Game Grip is available now for $49.99.

LockScreen Widget - Quick Lockscreen Updates - Free Alternative to Intelliscreen and Kate

LockScreen Widget

As you can probably tell, since there is nothing else really going on, today is Theme Day here on MyTriniPhone. And in this post I am focusing on Widgets for your Lockscreen. These widgets will allow you to get info/updates about missed SMS messages, weather, Ringer status, a cool Digital clock, missed emails, RSS feeds and IM messages. It takes a bit of setting up and but as you can tell it’s well worth it if you are looking for a unique look that serves a purpose.

To do install these widgets you will need a jailbroken iPhone or iPod Touch with Cydia Installed, OpenSSh and the FTP client of your choice. Once you have Cydia installed you must download and install Status Notifier and WinterBoard.

All credit goes to the following people for creating the software for you iPhone that makes this possible.

- Aldwin over on MacThemes for putting this all together in a nice thread
- Zetetic Apparatchik - for the weather widget
- productred - for the one week forecast version of the weather widget
- nuclear potato - made a background image similar to the one in his slock theme.
- Jay Freeman for Cydia and WinterBoard

Some Features:

• LCD clock for lockscreen (with seconds and am/pm indicator)

• Supports Status Notifiers 0.2.10, adds support to the following events:
  * Unread Email
  * Missed call/voicemail
  * Calendar alerts - it’s there but I still have no idea on how to invoke this
  * SMS: MobileSMS / iRealSMS / biteSMS
  * MMS: SwirlyMMS
  * IM: BeejiveIM / Fring / Palringo
  * RSS: NetNewsWire
  * Silent mode (ringer off)

ClockScreen for your iPhone SpringBoard

ClockScreen is a new app available on Cydia for your iPhone or iPod Touch that allows you to view the date and time easily on your springboard.

The theme takes a little setting up as you have to move the blank icons installed so that the ClockScreen is visible. Here is my install on my iPhone running the Bez Theme and Stacks. Check out MyTriniPhone on Flickr for more.
