Those familiar with the iOS jailbreaking world are probably aware of Nicholas Allegra, commonly known as Comex, the author of the incredibly popular jailbreaking tool JailbreakMe. Now, he revealed in a tweet that he will be working as an internee at the company whose devices he loves hacking; Apple!
A few days ago, more rumors of a lower-end iPhone 4 to be sold along with the upcoming iPhone 5 emerged, perhaps to replace the aging iPhone 3GS. While not much is known about the future handset, parts of the casing have leaked that suggest that the iPhone 4S, as it's known as, will indeed be very similar to the iPhone 4 despite a few minor changes.
The iPhone, Apple's smartphone device, has been a company-defining gadget, helping the Cupertino outfit reach the dizzy heights of one of the world's most valuable companies.
Apple is currently in the process of creating those famous ad campaigns we've become accustomed to seeing in advance of the October release of the iPhone 5.
Just yesterday, it became known that the iPhone 5 could be heading to Sprint, only leaving T-Mobile as the only major US carrier not to carry the iPhone. According to a source, however, T-Mobile might also be getting the iPhone 5 sooner than later, making the handset to be available on every carrier in the United States.
The developers behind the Cydia Store have certainly upped the ante in the last couple of months. With Comex's JailbreakMe exploit bringing thousands more to the jailbreak community, the supply has certainly increased with the demand.
It wasn't long ago that we reported of the iPhone 5 silicone cases which had begun selling on the internet - sourced mainly from China. It seems that wholesaler TruSupplier is very confident on the outcome of the final design, and has subsequently added hard-shell cases to the roster in anticipation of the launch, expected to be early October.
At this point, it should be no secret that Apple will soon be coming out with a new iPhone, known in the Apple community as the iPhone 5. Credible evidence now suggests that the next iPhone will be world phone, supporting both GSM and CDMA bands.
If you're a regular reader of this site, or just a registered Apple developer, you're likely aware that iOS 5 Beta 6 was released on last Friday, as the system edges closer to its final form. If you have jailbroken iOS 5 Beta 6 using Redsn0w 0.9.8b5 (the old version), as we have mentioned before, you should have noticed some stability issues. Thankfully, all of these issues have been fixed in a new version of Redsn0w which was just released.
Earlier this year, jaws across the world dropped when Japan was hit by a huge earthquake that cost many lives and brought the country close to a nuclear catastrophe. Apple is playing its part at helping by displaying earthquake warnings on iOS 5's Notification Center to all users in Japan, using the country's own earthquake warning system.
