good news bad news

  • Good news – apparently it was just a user error that kept the dictionary app off the iPhone during the recent restores etc.
  • Bad news – (already knew this) not really oxford dictionary
  • Good news – put it back on via iTunes no problem
  • Bad news – not optimized for iPhone 5
  • Good news – no apparent use/screen glitching due to not being optimized
  • Bad news – to get optimized version, another $20+ and still not really oxford (why don’t they sue the heck out of whoever that is and use the proceeds to develop their own app)
  • Good news – back in dictionary business on iPhone and I’m not having to store 600,000 entries that would be involved with real OED app

and some unrelated advice from the quote box:

The air’s advice is all
Young birds are guided by:
Fly and you will not fall,
or fall and you will fly.
– Marie De L. Welch
