Let's face it, internet tethering is one of the most useful features throughout the smartphone market, allowing any device to become a makeshift hotspot with just a few simple actions.
The folks behind the famous iPod touch Peel case have come up with an all-new product called the Vooma Peel PG92 which adds the ability to use two SIM cards on your iPhone, besides giving it extra battery life.
Yesterday, we published a post in which we talked about a Chronic Dev Team member claiming that he had found a bug which would help in untethered jailbreak for iOS 5. Today, the same member has let jailbreaking enthusiasts know that if they wish to jailbreak their iOS device untethered, they should stay away from iOS 5.0.1.
Siri was announced as one of the three major features of the iPhone 4S back on October 4th at the Let’s Talk iPhone event. It is a personal assistant of sorts, which can take input in the form of voice to perform a wide variety of tasks including things like sending emails/texts, setting reminders/alarms, playing your favorite song and answer other queries with help of services like Wolfram-Alpha, Yelp, Rotten Tomatoes and Google.
It's hard not to be a little excited with each and every new discovery of what the seemingly limitless Siri can do. Having already been ported throughout the iDevice range (even as far back as the iPhone 3GS), it's of little surprise Eric Schmidt is reportedly running a tad scared.

Finally after a series of betas and a candidate release, the official release of Mozilla's Firefox 8 is now available for download.
Smartphones have terrible, terrible battery life. From truly horrifyingly terrible like the HTC Thunderbolt, to the somewhat tolerable iPhone 4, no mainstream smartphone can last more than two days with moderately heavy usage. My own smartphone - a Samsung Galaxy S II - doesn’t last more than 14-15 hours on a single charge and I have to invariably charge it overnight to make it through the next day. I love it to pieces, and the short battery life is a compromise I have to take in order to enjoy its great features, but yes, a longer battery life would be highly appreciated.
Pop quiz time! What's better than an iPhone case? An iPhone case with a built-in projector, correct! What could possibly be any better than a handy way to protect your iPhone from all the scuffs and scrapes of a busy day and being able to show that Keynote presentation at the same time? Texas Instruments and hardware company Brookstone have teamed up to offer just that.
Apple today updated its Apple Store iPhone application to include the expected 'self-checkout' feature, which will allow buyers to purchase items in Apple's retail stores without the need for a clerk to take their payment.
