Mobile Speak 4 is here!

It's finally ready. Click this link to visit Code Factory's website and try it for yourself. It's well worth a look, at least, when deciding what mobile platform you want to use. Enjoy!

Install Mobile Speak 4 with just four keystrokes

With Mobile Speak 4's release just around the corner, I thought I would demonstrate Code Factory's new express installer to get the software up and running on my phone in just four keystrokes.
