As far as our lovely product line goes, one object truly has my heart. As a person who daily juggles toddler, household, and business tasks, I don’t have the time or mental space to keep track of a lot of gadgets. Nor do I want to litter my landscape with more things that I will just have to clean up. Like Bridget Jones, I am very busy and important. I will actually use something that is small, multi-purpose, portable, and reliable.

As much as we loved that sexy machined aluminum in Magnus, it made sense to make the iPad mini version as lightly portable as the device it holds. And plastic makes it perfect.

Magnus mini gives me a separate screen for FaceTime calls at my desk. I can also keep an eye on the game while I work without sacrificing any laptop screen space. I pick the whole thing up and take it to the kitchen to make dinner. Plop it down in front of the kid for dinner and a show (Mighty Machines, if you please). Toss the whole thing in my bag to entertain my son on the go.

I convinced my colleagues that Magnus mini is the product to feature this time. So, we’re discounting it 20% for a Valentine’s Day sale. I know you’ll love it as much as I do.

We discovered an error in our deployment script that prevented iOS 5-compatible binaries from being included in the last release. Apologies if this caused you any headaches. This release is nearly identical to 1.3.2 from November '12 with the following changes:

Release notes:

• Fix - Now includes proper iOS 5-compatible binaries.

This update brings limited compatibility for iPad Air and iPad mini retina. As before, this release includes a 64-bit binary. As of this release, palm rejection is now fully supported for iPad Air and iPad mini retina. Pressure sensitivity will also generally work, but can drop to nearly zero at times. Turning the screen off/on will restore pressure data if this occurs. The loss of pressure data can seem random, but we have noticed that it is often triggered by electrical noise when the lightning connector is attached.

Release notes:

• Add - Support for iPad Air and iPad mini retina.
• Add - T1PogoManager @property CBCentralManagerState bluetoothState for obtaining bluetooth state on demand.
• Fix - Regression v1.3.0 and v1.3.1 preventing connections when SDK is enabled after app launch. Thanks to Brian.
• Change - Build number 37.
