			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We are very happy to announce that <em>Rome: The Ancient City</em> has been released for the iPhone and iPod touch. This fascinating walk takes you on a tour the heart of ancient Rome, as was seen 2000 years ago in Julius Ceasar&#8217;s time.</p>
<p><a href="itms://itunes.apple.com/us/app/rome-ancient-city/id337745342?mt=8"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-186" title="Rome: The Ancient City (iPhone edition)" src="http://walki-talki.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/rome_iPhone1.png" alt="Rome: The Ancient City (iPhone edition)" width="185" height="382" /></a><a href="itms://itunes.apple.com/us/app/rome-ancient-city/id337745342?mt=8"><em>Rome: The Ancient City</em> is available in the App Store now for just $9.99.</a></p>
<p>In addition to adding yet another city to our iPhone catalog, this is the first city to be released with version 1.1 of our player software. The rest of our published iPhone catalog has also been upgraded and submitted to Apple and is pending approval. Version 1.1 has several improvements:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Addition of a volume slider especially for iPod touch users.</strong> Since most our staff are iPhone users, we overlooked the fact that the iPod touch has no volume controls other than what the app puts on the screen. (Sorry!) This oversight has been corrected.</li>
<li><strong>Zooming support.</strong> The map can now be zoomed in and out either by pinching or double tap/two finger double tap, just like the built in maps.</li>
<li><strong>Better resume support.</strong> Several bugs were fixed so that the app now does a far better job of remembering where tracks were if playback is paused for any reason.</li>
</ul>
<p>Now that 1.1 is out the door, we are beginning to plan for the next release. We would love to hear any feedback or suggestions that people might have.</p>
