It was of relative disappointment when the buzz circulating around the Web of Apple's purported redesigned iPhone 5 turned out to not be the massive upgrade consumers were waiting for.
Apple certainly made a splash with the release of Siri, even though it is in some sort of beta flavored flux. With nothing quite like it out there on any other device, and the decision to limit its availability to the new iPhone 4S, Apple both gave a reason to upgrade to iPhone 4 owners, and made the competition sit up and take notice at the same time.
If you like the idea of using your iPad as a fully functional phone, now you can. Thanks to a hack by iPhoneIslam, iPad users running the new iOS 5 update can install PhoneIt-iPad and start making calls right from their device.
When Siri was introduced just last month, it didn’t take long for developers to tinker with the software and find innovating ways of using the feature.
Today has been a crazy sort of day when it comes to news from the jailbreaking community. First we saw Chronic Dev-Team (CDT) - the folks behind GreenPois0n jailbreaking tool for iOS 4.2.1 - releasing a new tool called C-Dev Crash Reporter which allows jailbreaking enthusiasts to send crash report data to CDT (instead of Apple) so they could find exploits, then we saw an all-new jailbreaking tool for iOS 5 / 5.0.1 called Ac1dSn0w released, and now we have received news regarding iPhone 4S unlock. Details after the jump!
Today has been a bit of a happening day for the jailbreaking community. A couple of hours ago, Chronic Dev Team released their Reporter program which sends crash reports to Chronic Dev Team servers (instead of Apple’s) so they can find exploits, and now we’ve received news of yet another jailbreaking tool.

When Apple began opening its brick and mortar retail stores; many thought someone at the company had been drinking a little too much Kool Aid. Nobody wanted to walk into a store and buy a computer, right?

When FaceTime was introduced back in 2010, it was rightfully considered to be, at least back then, an “empty” feature. There were two reasons for this, it only worked over WiFi and only between two iPhone 4’s. Since then, FaceTime has been brought to other Apple products and it now works on the iPad 2, iPod touch 4G as well as OS X and, because of this, it has actually become a pretty useful service for folks who stick to Apple for their computing needs. Its first limitation - that of being WiFi-only - was removed thanks to a jailbreak tweak called FaceBreak which enabled FaceTime over 3G. This tweak has now been updated to support jailbroken iOS devices on iOS 5 and iOS 5.0.1. Details after the jump!
All things considered, it's been a pretty solid year for Microsoft. With Xbox 360 + Kinect still selling like hotcakes, allied to Windows 8 being greeted warmly by PC users far and wide, the Redmond-based company's mobile OS has now been acknowledged as the 'Operating System Of The Year'.
