Already released in beta stages through their Google Code page, the guys at networkpx (creators of iKeyEx) are nearly ready to release Grip, a Growl look-alike for iPhone. If you don't know about Growl, you're probably not using a Mac. Growl provides system notifications (and tons of application notifications as well) in a sleek HUD themeable style.

From a translated blog post we see there's currently two notification methods:

• Using a text pop-up box that appears in the screen must be to relate to, and decide what you want to do.
• Use of voice messages by using Tziltzol (sic - looks like translator isn't perfect ) or vibration.

No definite word on release date - just "Soon we expect a very big surprise וטובה! "

Once they're ready to release you should see it on Cydia.

[ares07]

poetic_folly, why are you quoting badly translated stuff, when on the project page there is complete information for devs and users, in proper english???

GriP - networkpx - Users' and Developers' guide to GriP ? Growl for iPhone. - Google Code

Besides, i created a thread about it yesterday

Thats a great idea. I use elert for my emails which works very similiarly. i love it. elert is the only thing worth a crap on that "rock your phone" app store (its free)

[ares07]

now you can avoid using RYP then

Is there a way to make GriP show you notifications for email? I have elert, but I don't like it at all. Elert alway freezes up my iTouch for a second or so and the close button on it doesn't really work. I'd much prefer being able to use GriP instead of elert.

Is there a video on how to install this on your iphone or ipod touch. is there a youtube video on it.

When I first installed it, I didn't get any notifications. After I rebooted, I get them now.
