OK - I have to admit I'm still playing catchup but I ran across these this morning and wanted to let anyone know that uses them.

Zoom H4n - 1.50 Firmware Update Released as following bug fix version. 1. Fixed the problem that the H4n freezes in rare cases when DIVIDE function has been done. 2. Fixed the problem that FF/REW function does not operate correctly after performing DEVIDE, RENAME or MP3 ENCODE function. 3. Fixed the problem that NORMALIZE function adds distortion to a normalized file in some cases.

Zoom R16 - 1.10 Firmware Update Released as following bug fix version. 1. Fixed the problem that connected PC freezes in rare cases when R16 is used as audio interface. 2. Fixed the problem that LED on R16 does not light in rare cases when R16 is used as control surface. They also updated the Audio Driver (1.2.0)

I know that this isn't so much recordings related but being that I own an iPhone, I thought it was interesting...

The Alliance

• Will establish a simple route to market for developers and provide them with access to a customer base of over 3 billion customers.
• aims to unite a fragmented marketplace by involving players from all related industries to create a community based on openness and transparency to the benefit of all.
• believes our model presents the most compelling format on the market where developers will thrive and customers will reap the benefits of greater choice.

Who's Involved?

A number of the world’s leading telecommunications operators and device manufacturers are launching an open global alliance, that will establish a simple route to market for developers and provide access to the latest and widest range of innovative applications and services to as many customers as possible worldwide.

Together, we have signed a memorandum of understanding with the aim of building an environment or ’wholesale applications community’ where innovative applications can be developed irrespective of device or technology.

The new alliance, which represents more than three billion customers worldwide is inviting players from across the ICT industry, not only operators and developers, but also handset manufacturers and internet players to join forces to create an initiative based on openness and transparency. We believe this model presents the most compelling format on the market where developers will thrive and customers will reap the benefits of greater choice. Furthermore, the GSMA is supporting this initiative.
