Apple Patents “Active Packaging” For Charging iPhone and iPod Touch on Shelf
Don’t you hate when you buy a brand-new gadget, take it out of the package, power that sucker on, only to discover that you have about 30 seconds of battery life to play with before the thing is tapped out. Apple, always thinking ahead, has submitted a patent which would allow their iPhone and iPod Touch gadgets to be charged while still in their packaging. This “active packaging” would allow “power, data, or both power and data to one or... Continue reading
What Features Do You Want To See in iPhone 4.0?
iPhone OS 3.0 is old news. How do we know it’s old news? One, everyone’s already talking about iPhone 3.1. Two, it has been released for more than fifteen seconds. So, with iPhone 3.0 out of the way, what are you looking forward to in the next major software upgrade? Here are some potential future applications, based on Apple patents.
iPhone App BeautyMeter Pulled for Underage Jailbait Porn
By a show of hands, who loves porn? Don’t be ashamed! I don’t blame you if you’ve felt a little guilt over the past few weeks with the way Apple shuns the nude female form. But in this second case of porn removal (so far), we can at least see the legal sense. Free iPhone app “BeautyMeter,” which was sort of like a modern version of “Hot or Not,” was pulled from the iTunes App Store shelves after teenage girls... Continue reading
iPhone 3.1 Beta Reveals New Features
Apple is slugging along with their newest developer release of iPhone 3.1. Seems like Steve Jobs is running a much tighter ship than maestro Cook. Many of the major issues of 3.0 (which probably wouldn’t of been there in the first place if it were up to El Jobso) have been fixed. Here is a list of improvements dredged up by developers. Non-destructive video editing means trimming a clip no longer saves over the original video but gives you the... Continue reading
NES Controller iPhone Dock
Heh, you know, this mod is quite pleasant on the eyes despite the lo-tech method it took to make. I mean, you can really turn anything into an iPhone dock by taking an iPod cable, drilling or dremeling out a proper hole for it and running it through the plastic back out to your computer. That’s really all it takes. Sega Saturn dock, anyone? Link
iPhone Dev Team Predicts End of Days For Jailbreaking
Some sad news is abound. The iPhone Dev Team, the peeps behind all the jailbreaking software you use, say that with the advent of the iPhone 3GS, an unlock IS available but Apple is bound to break it with a software update. Not only that, but the team goes on to say that Apple will eventually find a way to keep them out permanently. So get your paws on a 3G or 3GS, post haste, before you actually have to...

Sprint To Apple: Fuck You Back
Last week, I posted a little blurb Apple made about the Palm Pre and iTunes syncing. It was essentially a big “Fuck You” to Palm and its iPhone competitor, the Pre. Now Sprint is striking back with an ad that directly attacks Apple and AT&T. If things keep up this way, we’re in for a long summer. Link
Reminder: Our Complete iPhone Hacking Guide
If you haven’t upgraded to the iPhone 3GS, you’re in luck. We’ve posted a guide that details how iPhone 2G and 3G owners can easily jailbreak their iPhone and get all the apps they desire for free. That’s right: nadda. Nothin’. So sit down, pull up an iPod cable and check it out.
Dude Creates Personal iPhone Icons
Even being the uber-geek that I am, I think I might be too lazy to go through the trouble of creating my own personal iPhone icons… for every single Apple-made application. Let’s be honest. I don’t think… I know. Nevertheless, this dude went through the trouble of taking pictures of himself, with each photo branding the same dorky expression, acting out each of the app’s functions or titles. Example… in the YouTube photo, he is holding a literal tube. Link
iPhone Gets First Porn App
::fap:: ::fap:: ::fap:: ::fap:: ::fap:: ::fap:: OH, SORRY! Didn’t see you there! There’s a brand new app out for your freshly hacked iPhone today. For $2, you can be the proud owner of “Hottest Girls.” As the name implies, it’s an app full of pictures of hot women. The developer notes that he added nude, topless pictures today, so if you’re retarded and can’t work Mobile Safari, it might be worth your time. UPDATE: The app was mysteriously pulled. TechCrunch...
