In a press release announcing Rio, Rovio exec Mikael Hed said his company "had taken the concept of combining a mobile application and motion picture promotion to an entirely new level." Right. Well, at any rate, it sure will be cool to get some more Angry Birds levels! We beat our iPhone edition of Angry Birds about 30 times over.
