Tricks and Tips for Fruit Ninja on the iPad

Let's get down to business. Here are a few tips and tricks for fruit ninja. Employ these and you'll be getting more than 400 points almost every time. If Angry Birds is more your game, you'll find your tips here.

Disclaimer - my current high score is 499 as you can see in the image.

1. Use one finger, and one finger onlyWhile Veggie Ninja encourages you to use multiple fingers to slice and dice your way to the top, the multi finger approach in fruit ninja will result in a much lower score.

2. Patience is a virtue Don't simply slice everything the second you see it. Wait until multiple fruits are on the screen if possible to maximize your score. Bonuses begin when a single slice cuts three fruit.

3. Maximize Banana powerPerhaps the only time to abandon number 2 above is if you are in danger of missing out on a freeze, double point or frenzy. Banana bonuses and power ups are the easiest way for novices to quickly increase there point totals from under a hundred to 200 or more!


4. Match up Banana power Every once in a while (5 or so games) you'll be lucky enough to catch a frenzy and freeze banana at the same time. This not only slows the clock but allows you to carefully slice your way to point heaven by getting multiple bonuses for three or more fruits.

5. Don't worry about missing a fruit If you don't drop a fruit you are awarded 50 points as a bonus. While that is a great end bonus, you'll end up with a lower point total if you obsess over every last fruit. Focus on multiple cuts and let insignificant individual fruits go!

iPad Camera

By now it's no big secret that the iPad 2 will have a camera. In fact, the more closely guarded secret is when the iPad 2 will be released with some estimates as early as April, 2011.

I doubt it. With the way that information leaked and spread on the release of iPhone 4 I think it's unlikely we will see the much anticipated iPad sequel until the second half of the calendar year.

When I bought my iPad I didn't think that the lack of a camera would be a significant detriment to using it much like a laptop computer, however, the lack of both front and rear-facing cameras quickly became apparent as the most significant flaw of the device.

So now, I like so many other iPad owners am forced with a decision on iPad2. Is it worth it to get another iPad just for the camera?

That is the question. What do you think?
