Augmented Reality. I've got a comp ed of AugmentThis! in the running. This round I didn't stress over the ADC, for a number of reasons, not the least that PURE LUCK will play a big role again. So I got the release candidate ready about a week before deadline. Of course there's always room to squeeze in new features and apply more polish. Like all dedicated devs I will remain eternally unhappy with the product, but assuming that the evaluators will not sniff out all the corners anyway, I spent the rest of the time testing, which turned out to be a good use of the remaining time.
Two remarks: As -v- has found, it takes a long time to get Android dialed and is decidedly challenging, in spite of the cheerful assurances in the various videos on Android's Google Code page. Seemingly trivial things can consume huge amounts of effort. Which isn't a problem, Android is powerful, with broad and deep access to the devices' capabilities (in case you haven't noticed). Re: CraigsRace's comment: If the ADC1 is any indication, placing above average won't get any exposure whatsoever.
