In the new version of Google Googles they added a nifty little feature that will recognize a Sudoku puzzle – and solve it for you. Check out the video above to see it in action.

I’m using a vanilla iPhone & iPad without any jailbreak but I’m a bit jealous on some of the nice apps available for jailbreaked iPhones like the MyWi and My3G. Here’s a nice list of the Top 10 Jailbreak apps compiled by Sayam over at CultofMac.com.

Today the highly anticipated game ‘Rage’ from id Software is launched in the App Store. It’s a pretty impressive game, even though it feels a bit more like a cool tech demo. Check out the video below (from TouchArcade) to see what you can expect from this game. It’s available in a SD and a HD version, and if you’re having an iPhone 3G or a 3Gs you should probably go with the SD version.

Oh, and if you buy the game and have TV adapter, try plugging in your iPhone / iPad while you play the game…you can play the game on your TV – really neat!

TriDefense is a quite cool game where you have to build defense towers to stop incoming enemies to reach your fortress. If you like these kind of games you’ll probably like TriDefense as well – I enjoy it. Today you can get the game for free.

If you have an iPad with a component cable or VGA adapter and an iPhone 4 you got to try this new game called ‘Chopper 2′. I think it’s really cool. You control the chopper using your iPhone 4 while the iPad is hosting the game and displaying it on your big screen. With this setup Chopper 2 delivers some true console gaming feeling even though the iPhone’s touch screen isn’t that great as a gaming controller. For $2.99 this is a must have if you already own the gear. Highly recommended. Check out some gameplay above (Note, this video is a few months old and the final game is even better).

I just wanted to warn you guys for this $2.99 game called ‘Flight Control – Aircraft Carrier Commander’. I thought it was a new ‘Flight Control‘ from Firemint, but this is something completely different. It’s a really crappy game so stay away from it. I won’t even link to it.

I just wanted to do a quick plug for this awesome game since it’s currently on sale. You can get it for $0.99 and then you’ll get three different pinball tables. I have only tried the iPhone 4 version but it’s a really good game with incredibe graphics and very realistic physics. Check it out if you’re looking for a good iPhone 4 game!

According to the latest metrics from 148apps there are now over 250 000 apps in the App Store. Let’s say that you try out 10 new apps every day. Then it will take you 25 000 days, or over 68 years to try them all…

Today I have done a small test of the $9.99 app ‘Air Display’. The whole purpose with the app is using your iPad (or your iPhone) as a second screen. It’s a neat idea and an app I tried earlier (iDisplay) failed miserably so it was nice to find this app a whole lot more usable. Review and video inside.

The setup is pretty easy but you have to install an app in both your computer and your iPad (and your iPhone if you like to use that one as well). Since you buy the app in the iTunes store you can install it on both your units without having to pay two times – just download it using the same account.

You have to reboot your computer to get going but the installation and download only took a few minutes. And this is what you get after the reboot. A neat and tidy configuration menu:

Just start the app on your iPad and select the unit in the dropdown in your computer. And yes, both your computer and your iPad have to be using the same WiFi network.

Since the app basically creates a virtual screen on your computer and then stream the ‘movie’ over to your iPad it’s not the same thing as connecting a real second monitor to your computer. There is lag involved and if you do a lot of changes on your screen it might get black for a second or two and you’ll also get some artifacts before the stream is up to date with the new screen information.

It works lovely for purposes that aren’t using intensive or require fast screen updates. Having your desktop Twitter app on the side works like a charm and having your mail or any other web app also works great. Playing clips from YouTube is another story and as you can see in the video below there is a bit of lag involved. Switching between the iPhone and the iPad is quite easy though and it only takes a few seconds and then you get the display up on your iPhone instead.

I was close to giving this app a ‘Fosfor Recommends’ but since it is quite expensive (well, 10 bucks for an extra screen can be considered cheap as well) and since it doesn’t work perfectly (and most probably won’t ever due to WiFi bandwidth), I won’t. I still think it’s a good buy but expect some lag! This one is waaay better than iDisplay though.

Oh, and here’s the video where you can see how much lag there is:
