Fans of the first Madera and Figaro game for the Apple iPhone will be happy to know that the app that features the two lead characters is now out for the Android smart phone.
The Madera and Figaro series is not really made for adults but for folks living with children (who are old enough to not damage a smart phone). This is an excellent way to keep children entertained and teach them a few useful lessons at the same time.
App developer Lyn and Line has been making plenty of child oriented apps –practically adding a new way to deliver a storybook experience with the help of smart phone technology. Many game designers have already tried making interactive children’s storybooks for desktop computers, but the medium simply does not translate well to children who are not too apt to tinker around with a keyboard and mouse.
The touch screen user interface on the other hand is completely intuitive, which makes the smart phone an excellent platform for digital interactive content aimed at children.
The new Madera and Figaro game focuses on the intrepid duo’s attempts to track down Ginger, the missing cat owned by Mrs. Applebottom. Donning their superhero costumes, the two lead characters transform into Carbon Girl and Adhero (which is basically a play on their characters as Madera is a monkey and Figaro is a frog).
Children will certainly enjoy the puzzle based gameplay which provides a wide variety of visual tasks. There is a combination of basic finger dexterity challenges and some simple brain teasers that will tune positively at a child’s inquisitive nature. The images are simple and easy to understand, and parents will certainly enjoy the educational value of the app.
A second Madera and Figaro title has also been released as well; the new game places the two lead characters in and new story with new puzzles and challenges.

Straight from ZDnet, a podcast reveals the three different chassis types for WP7.
The type 1 chassis will feature the regular touch screen smart phone look. This will most probably be the standard for all WP7 devices as the user interface will need a large capacitive touch screen to be used properly. It is what we commonly see with the recent WP7 user interface screenshots. All in all, this is pretty much expected already.
The type 2 chassis is only slightly different than the type 1. Type 2 will come with a slide out QWERTY keyboard which makes it a great choice for users who are heavy message senders. The type 3 is rumored to be a candy bar phone, though that hardly matches the style suitable for the new UI.
In any case, regardless of what chassis will be coming, the general prediction is that the device will be running on a Qualcomm processor (possibly the Snapdragon 1GHz CPU). Since Windows Phone 7 series seems to be heavily reliant of high loading speeds and heavy animations, the processing power of the Snapdragon will make for a perfect fit. It has also been reported that Asus will be working with Microsoft to create the very first WP7 device.
WP7 is shaking things up in the mobile platform industry by delivering a new OS that could potentially surpass the Android and the iPhone OS. Though with the launch if the iPhone 4G coming soon, the title is still up in the air.
So far, no confirmed release date for the OS can be confirmed. While it has been said during the presentation that the device is expected by the holidays, some reports are pointing to an early October release.
Get to know the new Windows Phone 7 series and get to see the different chassis on Softpedia.
