PuyoMobile 0.4 release

A new version of Puyo Mobile is now available.

Highlight in this release is
(1) Game level support. The level will be increased when you win every 50 points. The falling speed of the balls will be faster. The level is saved together with your points in the scoreboard.
(2) Multiple language support. Initially you can switch to English or Chinese.
(3) Blinking effects when the balls are going to be removed.

The download link contains the JAR file for installation. Anyone interested in the code can download the source here.

Installed Ubuntu 8.04

Just installed ubuntu 8.04 as my 3rd OS on my 3.5-year-old laptop. The installation went quite smoothly. Even my bluetooth dongle works out of box. I can open my N95's directory quite easiy and copy back and forth files.

The only annoyance was that the firefox 3.0b5 didn't work with the Adobe flash player 9. However, today I manually installed 3.0 rc1 and flash player 10. It works like a charm!
