1337pwn.com App Store Submission

We have deployed the native iPhone/iPod Touch XBOX Live Friends application to the AppStore. The application should be available for sale as soon as it clears Apple's review process. If you'd like a sneak peek, click here to see a development build in action.



We think that it is the best XBOX Live Friends application out there on any device and hope that you agree. We look forward to your feedback. Enjoy the application!

If you are looking for an excellent web-based alternative (ie. you haven't upgraded the firmware), be sure to check out our web-based application for the iPhone/iPod Touch here.

Thank you and... don't pwn alone(tm)
