iHandwarmer

The iPhone is quite a little mobile platform. It's more like developing for a PC class device than it is an embedded mobile device. I recall being very careful with processing cycles back in my Palm days. I used fixed point math and lookup tables for formulas. Those days feel long gone now. This device is quite capable of dealing with as much floating point math I can throw at it.

All those burning MIPS make for quite an iHandwarmer!
