I believe the rotation cube its already an example code from htc dev center. I got it to learn to use 3d functions for evo3d phones. since this developer post such basic programs on the marker, maybe i can.post my first Hello World on it too. maybe add a featured pay app that first let you press a button and then shows you the message.
