I think it is fair to say that the majority of iPhone users involved in the jailbreak community have been keeping their gazes firmly fixed on the Twitter and BlogSpot accounts of developer Pod2g in the last couple of months. In November of 2011, he tweeted, somewhat out of the blue, that he had managed to find a bug in iOS 5 which he believed could ultimately lead to a distributable jailbreak.

We even had personal digital assistants which came with a big ugly stylus and made us look like a bit of a snob when using them in public. All of these came with distinct advantages, but none of them quite fulfilled the need of people who wanted to do a bit of everything on the go.
Although Action Man and Barbie tend to take a backseat in favor of electronic gadgets nowadays, there’s still a little place in our nostalgic hearts for the odd action figurine – particularly when it is of legendary Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, who passed away three months ago to pancreatic cancer.
Christmas is always going to be a big time for companies like Apple and Google. With gifts being given the world over, there's a high probability that a good chunk of them run either Apple's iOS or Google's Android. Both have their own application stores.
Regardless of the mountainous stack of rumors which are emerging about the iPad, the reality is that we are likely to see a release of the next generation device sometime before the end of the first quarter of 2011. A release by the end of March would signal a year since the launch of the iPad 2 and be a perfect time to capitalize on the expanding tablet market.
