TidBITS#1078/23-May-2011
========================
  Issue link: <http://tidbits.com/issue/1078>


  We have a cornucopia of articles this week, anchored by Jeff Carlson’s
  report on using the iPhone app Cyclemeter to track a 42-mile bike ride
  in the rain. Adam returns to the topic of iOS developers being
  threatened with patent infringement letters with news of Apple Legal’s
  response, and he also shares a subtle change in Mac OS X 10.6.7’s
  Finder sidebar that could have you questioning your sanity. On the
  perceptual side, Michael Cohen explores how being told to “Get over
  it” makes him feel in the rumored Rosetta transition with Lion, and
  Adam disassembles his laptop bag to figure out why it feels so heavy,
  even going so far as to share a spreadsheet of its entire contents.
  Notable software releases this week include Dolly Drive 1.2, PDFpen
  and PDFpenPro 5.3, ProKit 7.0, Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update
  3.7, and Mailplane 2.4.
