The Pacemaker DJ app for the iPad has today been updated with a new feature called Mix Moments that allows users to create “a cover art mash up” of whichever tracks are currently being mixed. Alongside the cover art feature, the company has also added a new audio effect called ChopChop, which it says is good for adding a stuttering sound to build suspense before a big drop. We’d expect to see a range more new effects added over time, given that the app is free to download but is monetised through in-app purchases.

Last year, Eyefi introduced Mobi, a wireless SD camera card that used a peer-to-peer connection to transfer images from your DSLR or point-and-shoot camera to an iOS or Android mobile device.

Alibaba
In December last year, the Chinese government issued what is known as ‘mobile virtual network operator’ licenses to HiChina, a subsidiary of e-commerce giant Alibaba, as well as its rival JD.com, allowing them to resell mobile telecom services. This means they get to lease mobile services from the three state-run major carriers — China Telecom, China Unicom and China Mobile — but offer their own independent packages with data and discounts for mobile devices that may differ from what is on the market right now.
