The calm before the storm

Well, The Dossier is approved, all the T’s are crossed and the I’s are dotted, and it’s available for purchase on the iTunes Store today for just $4.99. James and I are kind of taking a little breather before what is sure to be a very exciting weekend. Tomorrow morning at 9AM, I’ll be heading to the Buffalo Apple Store to pick up my 32gb iPad and rush it back to Niagara-on-the-lake for some hardcore play time.

I’m eager to see if we got the feel of the app right for the actual device. Using a finger is different from using a mouse, touching is different from clicking. We thought a lot about how long you need to hold something before it triggers a move, for example, but we were kind of guessing because we don’t have an iPad to fine tune it.

The next two weeks we’ll be working on an update that will fix any fine tuning issues, as well as start adding the features we’d wanted to get in for the release but didn’t have time. Starting on Monday, I’ll be talking a little bit about what those features are and how we intend on getting them in.

Tomorrow I’ll write up a little about the iPad itself, once I’ve had some time to play with it. I’m as excited as you all are, I’m sure! :-)
