Spacie
The Mac Doc reviewed on 23 Jun 2011
The user interface of Spacie is almost exactly like that of WhatSize. Take a look at them side by side - the similarities are obvious.
UI similarities aside, although Spacie costs only $2 as opposed to WhatSize's $13, Spacie lacks a great many of WhatSize's features.
Whatsize also has the advantage of being a Universal Binary that runs under OS 10.4, as opposed to Spacie's being Intel-only and requiring at least OS 10.5.8. There are still plenty of G4 and G5 owners out there who run Tiger, but Spacie is useless to them.
Overall Spacie is a good first effort, but it has quite a way to go before it can compete with WhatSize. In addition, its near duplication of WhatSize's interface is rather blatant.

Nicecast
I had to go to the developer's web site to find out Nicecast is now 10.5 and above ONLY.
My Comment in a nutshell, as a paid owner and longtime Nicecast user, is I think that stinks.

Mactracker
The crash happens under ‘My Models' when adding the Contact from the Address Panel. I have confirmed the crash on both a 1st generation Macbook as well as an Early 2009 Mac Mini, both of which run 10.6.2. However, it works just fine on a Dual 2.7GHz G5, so perhaps this is an Intel-only issue?
I absolutely adore Mactracker and have used it for years, which is why I am bringing this to everyone's attention. I'm sure the developer will squash this in no time.
I was just wondering if anyone else can reproduce this crash.
Apple iOS
I literally had to attach it to another Mac and restore it to the original factory settings just to get it activated so I could have a phone! Everything was reset. I have to manually redo every single setting, re-add all my email accounts, my wireless network settings, EVERYTHING. Trying to restore from a previous backup FAILED.
Luckily my Contacts are backed up on MobileMe so I didn't lose them, but it's still a nightmare.
