CyberRunner - 3D person running game (1st perspective); dodging objects.
Optimizer - Awesome battery app; probably the best one out there I've gotten for free.
Match Magic - kiddie line-drawing matching game

iPhone OS 3.1.3 available now.

Another update for iPhone / iPod Touch is available with only these features:

- Improves accuracy of reported battery level on iPhone 3GS
- Resolves issue where third-party apps would not launch in some instances
- Fixes a bug that may cause an app to crash when using the Japanese Kana keyboard

You don't need to update unless you are Japanese, or you regularly examine the battery level in-depth on a iPhone 3GS, or ifyou can't launch third-party apps.  Okay, so my point is THIS UPDATE IS NOTHING!!!
