^{You want filing?  They gots you some filing!}

Under the heading of, “If the iPhone is more like a wee bitty computer than a phone, why can’t it do more computery things?” comes an update to an existing iPhone application:  HanDBase.  Written by DDH Software, HanDBase is a relational database app that allows you to manage your information in the way you’re used to with a typical relational DB.

The update includes some new look-and-feel options, a new security mode, a new Choose Database file, and a bunch of the usual stuff that comes with an update, I’m sure (bug fixes; performance enhancements; etc.).  So if you’re one of those people that keeps trying to use your iPhone as more than a toy, maybe this is another app you need to install.  Take a look and decide for your own self.

Full press release after the jump.

DDH Software has released an update to HanDBase for iPhone—it’s got a great new look and is easier to use. HanDBase is one of the oldest mobile app brands out there. It’s a relational database app that makes it simple to create your own mobile solution for managing any kind of information—both personal (collections, recipes, bank accounts, prescriptions) to business (time and billing, inventory forms, etc.).

Here is a list of the new or updated features:
