It does indeed, but out of interest, what are the controls?
Do you just have to tilt the tablet, or is there some sort of visible control system?

You have to blow on the screen to generate wind
Anyone having problems with ad block plus where it seems to turn of randomly and then when loading web pages a message pops up about a proxy and the pages won't load.
Was working fine for the first few hours but now it doesn't
BTW angry birds star wars has been updated now, hoth levels.

not had any issues with ABP yet, but then again i've only been on a handful of pages
Theres visable controlls on the screen. You have the wheel on the bottom right for turning and the sail on the left side of the screen. or you can have the sail automatic and just controll the steering. I just bought it even though i find watching sailing pretty boring lol but actually find this quite fun and the graphics are great. Lovely water effects.

Just noticed that the Play Store now prompts for a password when buying apps + in-game purchases!!
This is a VERY welcome feature which unfortunately is a little late to get back the £20 my little boy spent buying new bikes in "bike race free" (it wasn't so free when he was finished with it!!)

About time they implemented that, such a huge security fail on Androids part. Even my BB prompts me for a password when buying an app, and same with my iphone4 when i had it.
Why it took them so long to implement such a simple procedure is really beyond me.
But yes a very welcome feature.

i found it a few month back when my some spent money on ant smasher game wasn't happy
Hmmm. I like this for security, but god, it's painful entering passwords on a mobile phone. Is this just a pin number?
Not totally sure but, IIRC, I seem to recall it in the options since almost when I got my S3 around May/June.
Edit: This article is dated 26th June - http://www.everythingabouttablets.n...play-store-and-app-purchases-with-a-pin-code/
If you Google "google play store pin protection added" (without quotes) a good few articles come up around the same date.

Well **** me sideways... wish I'd noticed that! I'd still be £20 better off lol
Oh well, I guess they must've just activated it by default with the last update then
