Date: September 2012

The continuing rise of the QR Code has just been reported by games trade journal, Mobile Entertainment.

Elite�s MD, Steve Wilcox noted, �... the Sinclair ZX Spectrum is an 8-bit home computer which was released in the UK in 1982 by Sinclair Research Ltd and which sold in excess of 5 million units worldwide. Thirty years on, it continues to have a passionate following amongst 30-something men, both in Britain and beyond. Indeed, as recently as May this year - as a result of single post by a member of UK blog-site hotdealsuk.com - some �10,000-worth of ZX Spectrum games were sold via Apple�s iTunes App Store in a period of little more than 72 hours. This happened despite production of the venerable home computer having been discontinued by its then owner, Mr (now Lord) Alan Sugar, some 20 years earlier.� Source: AppFigures.com $\"\"$ �We�re releasing the QR Codes not only to again raise awareness of the free versions of the iPhone and iPad apps but also to say to marketers, �work with us, create communications, campaigns and custom versions of the Sinclair ZX Spectrum apps and share them with this tech-savvy and passionate audience.�� For further information please contact: Steve Wilcox, Elite� Tel. + 44 (0) 777 569 6564 Mail paperboy@elite-systems.co.uk Web www.elite-systems.co.uk Twitter @elite_systems A QR Code Reader for iOS devices can be downloaded from here.
