Onavo for iPhone (beta) – get your invite here!

The journey isn’t over yet, and the last 2 weeks were chaotic here, working on final touches and de-bugging the webapp, but now I can officially invite you guys and gals, iPhone-ers of you at least, to download Onavo for iPhone (beta)!

Onavo iPhone iconOur co-founders are attending Barcelona this week, roaming the halls of Mobile World Congress 2011, along with an estimated 44,998 other people, handing out 1,000 personalized invites to join our beta. Yes, it’s a closed beta, by invitation only, but guess what – I pulled some strings, and have 100 invites for you, to download Onavo for iPhone (beta). All you need to do is open your iPhone’s Safari browser, enter ‘onavo.com/dvirmwc‘, follow the instructions and start saving on data roaming.

Remember, we’re still in beta – so bear with us, and also let us know what you think. We welcome any idea, suggestion and feedback. 100 invites – ready, set, go :-)

Oh, and if you’re at MWC this week, ping @guyro and @roitiger – they’d love to meet you. Might even get an Onavo schwag ;-)

Word Lens – Mobile Translation

If any of you had a doubt that mobile is already changing the way we live, comes Word Lens (iPhone, free demo, 4.99US$ full) and puts another nail (or click) to strengthen that statement.

Very simple – point your iPhone on any word, and receive an immediate translation on the screen. Currently support English and Spanish only, but additional languages are in the works.

First seen at Appboy (by Hillel Fuld).

Angry Birds Peace Treaty

Season 8 of Israel’s leading comedy/late-night show, Eretz Nehederet (A Wonderful Country), starts shooting soon, and in the meantime they started publishing short clips online.

The latest one is a parody on the world’s famous mobile game – Angry Birds, with a Middle-eastern twist :-) The English version was published 4 days after the Hebrew one and already surpassed it by # of views. Even received a share from Jeremiah Owyang on facebook.

Enjoy!
