Sirius iPhone App

Bummer. I just sat on the phone with Sirius for a half hour trying to get the iPhone app service set up. We got through the whole deal and then after we're done I asked if the channels are the same as Internet Radio to which he replied "It's all the same, except for Howard Stern". Seriously, people. That is pretty much the main reason I wanted the iPhone app. I mean I do love the music and Martha Stewart, but come on. I can use Pandora for music variety...why would I pay additional $ when Pandora is free???

This is complete bulls*&%. I was so close to getting Stern while at work. Then I'd REALLY not be getting much accomplished but at least I wouldn't have to sit in the car in the parking lot finishing an interview. Newman. Maybe Howard will use this as leverage when negotiating his new contract. IF he even tries. This sucks.

Hello,

I tried to find an email or contact button on your site, but I could not - so I just write this in a comment. Hope that's ok!!

I am reaching out to you to let you know about a free photo contest we are having for parents and their children. Aqility, the company I represent, has developed an iPhone game called Little Cook. The game is currently ranked #3 in the Educational games category at the iTunes app store and is also ranked #3 overall in Kids games!
We are incredibly excited about the success of Little Cook and we are now holding the Little Cook – Little Critic photo contest!

I hope you will consider posting the contest info on your blog in case your readers want to enter.

Here are the details:

Little Cook, a featured iTunes App Store game for kids and the #3 ranked game in the Educational and Kid’s Games categories is announcing a new photo contest to find the world’s cutest Little Critic! Although Little Cook was designed for children aged 3-7, the Little Critic photo contest is open to children of all ages. The first prize winner will receive a $50 iTunes gift card and a free copy of the Little Cook iPhone application. Additional winners will also receive iTunes gift cards, along with the Little Cook app. To enter, visit the Little Critic contest webpage to upload your favorite funny photo of your child enjoying their favorite meal!

Little Cook was specifically designed for children ages 3-7 as an interactive learning and playing tool. The app allows young players to create their own inventive recipes by mixing different combinations of ingredients. Players can choose to prepare a variety of dishes, including omelets, soup, pizza – even ice cream sundaes! The challenge lies in combining the best ingredients to please the tiny taste tester!

Little Cook is ranked # 3 in the Educational Games category, and # 3 under Kids Games in the iTunes App Store. Little Cook is also featured as a “New and Noteworthy” by iTunes, and can be downloaded for a limited time for $.99 from the iTunes App Store.
