Now that is nice.  Wish I had that back when I was getting my first class FCC radiotelephone license back in the early 80's.

iCircuit is great. It still has a few quirks, but, is getting better with every update. The portability factor is wonderful. I use it a lot, mostly at 37,000 feet. wink.gif

I have found it quite helpful to understanding basic principles and theory-based circuit design. I highly recommend it, quirks and all. It can really help solidify your understanding of electronics. They finally added a transformer, now they just need to add a tube!

BTW, The program itself is based upon this set of (free) Java Applets:

If you do not check out iCircuit, be sure to check out this site. A great resource for theory-based circuit design and simulation.

I was going to say, this seems a lot like falstad. It's a great concept, and seem to be implemented well.

One for tube circuits would be excellent.

I think I'll take the $10 plunge...

its excellent for what it is, has come in really handy!. it means if i have an idea running around in my brain when i wake up, i can model it to see if it was complete nonsense on my way into town while listening to tunes. they also need to add a jfet
