By destroying the green pigs, the Angry Birds can get back their eggs. The mean green pigs are protected by constructions of wood, glass and stone.
In almost every category the apps of big internet companies won, Amazon, eBay, Google and Facebook were among the winners. It isn’t suprising that developing apps for smartphones is big business.

In-flightentertainmentsystems exist longer but the possibilities the new system has are impressive; news, live TV, games, access to social networks, broad band internet and mobile service.
The build in screen in the chairs are equipped with a touch screen but also can be operated with an extern controller with touch screen; it can even sometimes give 3D features.
