It’s all in the headline, baby: both Palm’s Mojo SDK and oh-so-useful webOS Doctor repair tool (for Sprint users, at least) have now been upgraded to the latest webOS version 1.3.5. What’s new in the SDK? Here, have some bullet points:
- Apps are now installed on the media partition, allowing available space to be used for apps
- The emulator enables keyboard shortcuts to simulate device orientation changes and shake events
- Palm has released an API to request high-frequency accelerometer events
- Numerous developer-reported issues have been addressed
