Spin3's leading casino games, Tomb Raider and Blackjack are already available for iPhones and iPods, and the Major Millions progressive slots will be online by the time of the Barcelona gathering.

Spin3 made sure  iPhones' flip-screen was integrated into the games, so they will play horizontally or vertically. Sharp graphics and advanced in-game effects keep the games on a par with Internet gambling sites.

The instant-play games are hosted and integrated into the iPhones' web browser, so no download or installation is necessary. The games feature touch-screen controls.

Additionally, personal messages may be customized when players log on.

Matti Zinder, the president of Spin3, said, " Developing the first commercially available play-for-real casino games specifically for the iPhone is a great achievement, reinforcing Spin3's commitment to set the benchmark for mobile casino gaming. This is a key milestone which we consider the beginning of mobilizing the Internet."
