Adding Machine HD Update
The update for Adding Machine HD is in the App Store now. It fixes a bug that came with iOS 5. In testing, sometimes upgrading the app alone is enough to fix the bug. In other instances you will need to delete the app and then reinstall. To delete the app you hold the icon for several seconds. All your icons will begin to wiggle and a black “X” will appear. Tap the icon you want to delete. After reinstalling tap a button to upgrade, Apple keeps records of what you have purchased and should not charge you.
Sorry for the inconvenance and sorry it took so long to fix, it was a real mystery for a long time.

Adding Machine HD Update
Submitted an update to Adding Machine HD today. It looks like turning off the iAds was causing the paid version to crash. Because of the way the app was originally built the ads exist at the start and are turned off if you’ve paid. Now we only load the ad system if you have not paid.

Apple TV Prediction
Walter Isaacson quoted Steve saying he had “finally cracked it” in reference to television. This is my guess of what Apple TV will become:
- A superior processor that includes at least one core for graphic processing
- Stereoscopic camera like the Xbox Kinect
- Stereo Microphone for Siri
- iOS gestures will be read by the stereoscopic cameras
- A full iOS interface layer based on Siri and spacial gestures
- Apps and Safari
It may include a channel tuner and with that a web service for channel selection or maybe just a Siri channel search engine. Airplay, iTunes and iCloud all will be extended and enhanced.
What it won’t be is a physical television set because your actual screen will still be good for several iterations of Apple TV before Ultra HD hits the scene.
Look for the announcement at WWDC 2012 with product shipping by Fall.
