Two weeks ago, we reported on a user interface concept by Jan-Michael Cart for a great implementation of speech recognition on the iPhone. Now he's back at it with a concept for implementing widgets into iOS, a feature that can already be found in Android and Mac OS X.

Come to think of it, there have been some whacky hardware prototypes that have turned into must-have technology - just imagine what a Tablet PC owner would think if you could have put an iPad in front of them way back in the mid 1990s. Technology changes and often ends up making our lives better further down the line, and that's why we're so excited about the invisible iPhone concept we just spied over at Engadget.
The developers at GreenPois0n announced limited edition T-shirts, as well as updates on its future jailbreaking software in a "State of the Chronic" post, providing status update on the the iPad 2 jailbreak, and GreenPois0n support for iOS 4.3.x. No releases yet, but they're close (or are they?)!
