It's been a while since we had a good old fashioned battle of the mobile operating systems, or more specifically an iOS versus Android head-to-head. The world's two most popular mobile offerings have both steeped themselves in glory and shame in the past, but a new report seems to show that iOS is leading the way when it comes to gaming revenues.
The recently released Image Grabber tweak that has just hit Cydia is a tool that affords users the ability to extract any image from within any web view that is found within iOS. The tweak itself is effectively a fully-featured image extraction tool that integrates into Apple's mobile operating system to give users some additional power to handle displayed media.
For those of you who think that using a smartphone should require the minimal amount of effort possible to operate, then having to arrange icons on the iPhone’s home screen may involve more effort than some are willing to expend. Thankfully, those who are jailbroken, and pay regular visits to the Cydia store will more than likely have managed to find some packages to automate certain processes.

ADR Studio, a common source of such art has outed yet another concept mockup of what they call the "iPhone Plus". It depicts an extremely thin iPhone with a 4.3" screen and an aluminum back, similar to the iPad, or even the first-generation iPhone in some regards.
As avid followers of the jailbreak community, we're used to being teased by the modders, developers and exploiters regarding each new advance towards a jailbreak, and Pod2g has done exactly that in revealing that he's discovered two new vulnerabilities in the quest to fully disarm the latest version of IOS.
George Hotz, known to most as serial exploiter Geohot, has been keeping something of a fairly low profile of late. Then again, when you're used to jailbreaking consoles and smartphones while making viral rap videos aimed at Sony's lawyers, I guess anything less than an explosion constitutes calmness and tranquility.
