Security research firm Intego, which specializes in Mac-related software, has stumbled upon a new variant of the Imuler trojan horse targeting Mac OS X users.
Sometimes technology can be used for good, and other times it can be used for evil. The development and inclusion of the Siri intelligent voice assistant on the iPhone 4S is an example of how technological advancements can be a good thing and no matter what a user’s personal opinion of Siri is, we must all agree that is represents an exciting future for human mobile interaction. With that in mind, developers involved in the jailbreak community also have the ability to modify Siri behavior, making her dance to the beat of their drum, which isn't always a good thing.

Although i0n1c demonstrated his method only a few hours ago, it can now be confirmed that there are three - yes, three - total methods of jailbreaking iOS 5.1 on 3rd-gen iPad, with the third jailbreak method coming from Grant Paul and Paul Griffin.
Although the Retina display of the new iPad is inarguably the highlight of the new features, the 5 megapixel iSight camera certainly plays a significant supporting role in proceedings.
Now that the new iPad is finding its way into the hands of those who were either willing to stand outside their local Apple Store or to hit refresh on the online equivalent, everyone is asking the same question: just how much better than the iPad 2 is this new, third generation version?
