Linear automation killed Jimmy Hoffa. And President Kennedy.

TouchAble is pretty incredible! Psychotic props to the devs. Congrats on getting it through the App Store gauntlet. I can't believe I have to shut it down and go sleep! Hope I won't be shelling out continuously for "native templates". Oh well, whatever... Dear Apple: please bring out a 17&...
