Frankfort, Kentucky - Steven Riggs is proud to announce TimeTable 1.1, a major update to his time tracking and billing utility for Apple iCal. Why not use iCal for more than just scheduling? With TimeTable, users can view, analyze and total the hours recorded in their iCal calendars, offering an easy way to list the amount of hours scheduled. This makes it particularly suited for tracking and billing without keeping a second record outside of iCal.

Griffin’s new ClearBoost case promises protection and a cellular signal boost for the iPhone, but does it deliver on those promises? Well, that would depend on who you believe. iLounge claims that the signal boost works, but not under the weakest signal conditions. Crunchgear, on the other hand, called the signal booster “one of the greatest scams perpetrated on mankind since the Kennedy assassination.” Hmm…strong words. However, both agreed that the case itself was decent, so at least you have that for your $30. UPDATE: It appears that Crunchgear’s review was done using a hacked iPhone on T-Mobile, which would account for the problems. Griffin tells us the ClearBoost was made for AT&T’s network.
